How about you change the timeout time

osirisdon · 07-09-2003, 12:42 PM

How about you change the timeout number to something greater than what is set right now. Its annoying to log into the forum, then if you have to walk away, then when you return and hit the search for new post button, then all of a sudden nothing will appear. I think the timeout for cookies is set to low. This is the only forum that this happens to me.

Solution:
admin page
vbulletin options
users and registrations options
Timeout for cookies <--- reset that number to something greater.

That will help out so I do not loose new replies.

Dunno if this problem affects other people. But it would be nice NOT to loose the new replies so quick.

The default settings is 900 that is pretty high and IMO a good setting.

:wink: :wink: bump for the admins

It's set to 1500 seconds. Maybe there is another problem?

osirisdon · 07-09-2003, 06:49 PM

wow 1500 is pretty high. Although i will have to double check that 900 is the default maybe it is 9000 not sure. I will get back to you on this matter.

edit::
hhmmm after checking it is 900 seconds.

now im stumped

I stay logged in for days. Not sure what's going on with you guys.

Its not about being logged in or being logged out. The problem was once you logged in, you stay logged in walk away, come back in 5 or so minutes, hit the new reply button and nothing shows up. What vBulleting does it resets its unread post to read in certain ammount of minutes or seconds.
