    Is anyone else having trouble staying logged in?
    I thought the internet was down, but I can go on other sites and search for online stuff etc no problem, it's just here.
    Any ideas?

    It's odd @Dovefromabove - we don't usually get too much bother here with the t'interweb, but it's happened about 3 times or so in the last hour while I've been looking on here.
    Just one of those things maybe...

      I only have a laptop, so it's isn't because I'm using a different device or something. :scratch:

        It's only been happening this afternoon, so it's maybe just a glitch of some kind :smile:

        Like Pete mentioned, there's a little tick box saying 'stay logged in'. Tick it if you haven't already

        Yes - I would normally use that @Loofah , but because I'm using a completely new password for this site, I've been logging out just so that I have to put the password in again, to help me get familiar with it!
        The other browser has also sorted another problem I was having with the signatures. Despite ticking all the boxes, and saving, I wasn't seeing them, but I am now. :)

        I know the new Chrome is hopeless in a lot of ways, so this is just another example!
        Thanks for the help folks :)

        I've had the same problem for years with GC but not on other forums or websites @fairygirl. The internet hasn't failed when it happens but there does seem to be a connection with bad weather like fog or low air pressure. It only happens during these times and not very often.

        Yes - it seems fine if I use Firefox, so that's what I'll do @Sheal. We didn't have any unusual weather yesterday, and it doesn't usually affect the internet connections when we do. No problems with any other site too.
        First world problems eh? ;)

          Just a thought, but if you have not ticked the box but are leaving the site for a while I wonder if it's something like a time out, usually happens with banking sites etc. In case you forget to log out.
