    I visit the forum at least once a day and my saved ID and password have always been automatically accepted and left me logged in.

    Beginning Several days ago I’m having to manually re-enter my log-in info every time I visit the forum. I check the box to “Stay logged on” but that’s not happening.

    What gives?

    New computer Ray?... do any browser updates?.. Sounds like the cookies are turned off in your computer.. check your settings.

    Nothing has changed with the board, or your account.

    I use Avast for my desktop with Chrome Browser.

    Looking into things further I find that my desktop with Chrome doesn't have this problem. It's only the Safari Browser on my iPhone. I'll look into it further later today and post what I find out. Been using Safari for V8Buick with no problems for years now.

    Do a hard reset on the phone

    Adam, What do you mean a "hard reset"?

    If you mean turn the phone off and on again, that's fine. If you mean erase the whole thing and start over, that seems like overkill.

    Same thought here.

    When you are logged out, does the little checkbox "stay logged in" show as checked at the sign in page?

    If it does appear checked, maybe turn that off, sign in, then sign out and recheck it?

    Depending on what version phone you have, the method of reset/reboot is different. Google is your friend. It’s like rebooting your computer at home. If I ever have some weird glitch come up on my phone, the first thing I do is reboot the phone. And it is more than just an off/on move.
