Last number of days I have to login every time visit website. Does not matter if I check box to "remember me". Never had this before.

Looking at the cookies for boincstats.com it appears they are now SESSION ONLY status.

Is this a new security thing?

I'm noticing the same thing. I was wondering if something had changed on my PC, but I guess not, if it's not just me.

In fact, if I have a BoincStats tab open in Google Chrome, but view another tab and return later to the BoincStats tab (Chrome remaining open the whole time), it asks me to login again. I don't know how long before it timeouts and I must re-login.

Yes, I changed session management, only one cookie wil remain. Also followed best security practices, I guess those are the reason for being logged out.

I'm working on it but my time is limited between work, family events etc. But it will be fixed.

Thanks Willy. Work and family are important, and not necessarily in that order!
I'll happily wait.

Again, thank you for the reply. Take care of yourself and family first then worry about the website.
Understandable. BEST PRACTICES SECURITY IS MOST IMPORTANT than having a long lasting login. Appreciate you doing what is best for us users and website.

I see I'm still logged in. Willy, have you been naughty and neglecting your family?

Just working on BOINCstats when I can.

I'm glad the fix works.
