It's logging me out... again!

CelticJuggler · 30/03/2014 14:08

Anytime I navigate away from MNet (I know, I do try not to do it, but sometimes I need to look at other sites 'kay? Wink ) I'm logged out and have to log back in again. Even if I have two tabs running, it happens when I switch from one to the other.

I've tried it on a variety of devices and browsers;

  • iPhone running latest software update (7.1?) and using Safari & Chrome.
  • Kindle Fire using Chrome and Silk
  • Laptop running Windows 7 and using Chrome & Firefox. I couldn't bring myself to try IE.

It's not the end of the world, but it is annoying.

Tech did sort it last time, but whatever he/she/they have upgraded has reset it for me (at least!).

Hasn't been a problem for me until a couple of hours ago, when it kept logging me out. I use rhe mobile site (iPhone 3GS, iOS 6.something, Safari) Now I can't post at all on the mobile site (I get the blue speech bubble instead).

App seems fine.

TheOneWithTheNicestSmile · 11/04/2014 23:46

well it's keeping me logged in AT THE MOMENT...

watch this space...

X post hopefully that's it fixed will let you know if it happens again.

Yes, I got that cookie message a few minutes ago. And was logged out when I went onto another tab for somewhere else and then returned.

Theonlyoneiknow · 11/04/2014 23:41

Me too, on iPad and android phone. Glad it's not just me!

FortyFacedFuckers · 11/04/2014 23:41

This has just started happening to me tonight. I am using my iPhone on the mobile site.

ShamTech · 11/04/2014 23:40

I've now put a fix in for this. Would be interested to hear if you still have problems after one more login with the 'keep me logged in' checked now. Thanks everyone for your help.

QueenYnci · 11/04/2014 23:39

It's just done it again. Tried to move from active to threads I started and it knocked me out and I had to log back in.

WorraLiberty · 11/04/2014 23:39

It's doing the same to me and what's with the new message when I tried to click on a thread in AIBU just now? Grin

It's logging me out... again!
ErrolTheDragon · 11/04/2014 23:32

Oh, I got logged out sometime this evening - win7, IE - first time in ages, was amazed I remembered my password first time. I assumed it was related to having done a windows update earlier today, maybe that something to do with this SSL security breach had been patched or suchlike.

5madthings · 11/04/2014 23:32

Still happening!

Beastofburden · 11/04/2014 23:31

Working ok again for me, thanks tech Smile

Terrortree · 11/04/2014 23:31

Me too. Don't you luffs us anymore? Is this one of those not so subtler hinty things?

Chrome on my laptop.

jaynebxl · 11/04/2014 23:29

Argh it has started happening to me today too.

Cirsium · 11/04/2014 23:28

Sorry didn't notice IOS request, IPad mini running IOS 7.1

TheOneWithTheNicestSmile · 11/04/2014 23:26

royal PITA, MN Hmm

Cirsium · 11/04/2014 23:26

Me too. IPad mini on safari.

TheOneWithTheNicestSmile · 11/04/2014 23:25

& on PC

TheOneWithTheNicestSmile · 11/04/2014 23:24

every time I close the browser on iphone & ipad it logs me out now (& I do have 'keep me logged in' ticked)

AchyFox · 11/04/2014 23:24

Me too

Beastofburden · 11/04/2014 23:19

Nanny, thanks, only thing is I have resisted installing the new operating system as I hates it.....

Beastofburden · 11/04/2014 23:10

Still here (scared to log out). But please, no solution that relies on me clearing all my cookies. If I lose my Ocado password there will never be any food in this house ever again

nannynick · 11/04/2014 23:09

You should not need to clear history, cookies or anything.

Just testing iPad...
... yep, working for me.

For those on iPad, try the following:

Double click the home button (the round one)
You see the apps recently launched. Find Safari and push it to the top, it flies away.
Click home button to return to apps icons.
Open Safari, it should auto reload any browser tabs that were open.
If mumsnet is open and it does not show the envelope symbol next to MyMumsnet, then close that tab and open a new tab... now reopen mumsnet, try clicking I'm On as that will force the login prompt if you are not logged in.

incogKNEEto · 11/04/2014 23:08

Happening to me too on mobile site on android phone.
