Thread: Being logged out?

I switched to Linux and I am using Brave (browser).

I never had an issue like this but when I go to post a thread, I get logged out. The same with making a reply. It doesn't happen every time either. It is really confusing. I couldn't figure out what could be causing it. My posts seem to be going through regardless but I figured I would mention the issue. I didn't have this problem when I was on Windows and Chrome. Though I did have the issue where I was appearing logged out on the main page. Maybe it is part of the same issue but a different variation of it?

I've looked into Brave. It runs on engines Google Chrome uses. I can't say whether this means it would also happen in Chrome. (Or Chromium for that matter.) Perhaps it is indeed similar to the issue you'd reported in the other thread that usually occurred right after logging in. After refreshes does it rectify itself, or do you always need to log in again completely?

Thanks for bringing it to my attention. While I'll probably need at least one more report from somebody else before a full investigation it's very useful to collect as much information as possible. What you've provided so far will prove useful if I begin another investigation. The most important thing is to test on different browsers if possible and see if it's certainly not an isolated incident. I guess these kinds of things can happen on many forums at random, but if there are repeat occurrences (perhaps Zemeks could report if this happens on his end as he had the original issue) I need to have this looked into. The good news is that the developer I hired has more or less given me a guarantee. If these issues persist I'm covered.

Were you using Brave when you had the original issue or have you switched to Linux very recently? I'm wondering whether this could be related to browser cache if you're using the same browser. If that's the case it may be worth emptying it. Perhaps the cookies too. (As I don't like clearing all cookies at once, I usually clear my cookies individually when using Chrome. Not sure how that works with Brave.)

Edit: Ah, I see that you said it's a different browser since the original issue. So I guess this won't be cache. Please keep me posted if it keeps happening.

I was on Chrome before yeah.

It just did it to me now. I was able to reply but then I came to this thread, went to reply and it had already logged me out. Very strange. I'll have to see if this happens on other sites I frequent on.

I always use OSN on Brave as well and I haven't had that issue.

I am not sure what the heck it could be. Just happened again. I was replying to a thread and it asked me if I was sure I wanted to leave, I hit save and I am logged out. I log back in and it posts my reply. Very weird. It doesn't do it everytime either. I am not sure what it can be but I am still able to use the forum so that is good. Just a minor inconvenience for the time being I suppose.

That should only be triggered when you've attempted to navigate to a different page. A bit of a safeguard so that you don't inadvertently lose your post, usually from an accidental click. (Having said that, the forum does auto-save posts which is often able to save you if you did happen to navigate away. What you describe is odd. I'll consult the developer.

I just had this issue.



I noticed something that might be of relevance. If this happens again, could you check to see if it's happening while you have any notifications at the bottom-left? It's a long shot but they may be related. Either way I'll see if the developer can figure this out.

Edit: It happened again right as I posted this. Since I'd already read the notification, that means they're unrelated. Hopefully this'll be ironed out soon.
