Yes for instance my Helix LT - not sure if I am way off all I know is it sux Also HX Edit - could be tied to that - always have to sign into that also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lungho Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 This drives me nuts too. From what I've observed, it seems that I'm automatically signed out after somewhere around 24hrs of inactivity. The only time I have to sign into HX Edit is when I upgrade to a newer version, and I don't use HX Edit every day. Also, if your browser is set to delete cookies when it is closed, then that would another reason why you have to sign in every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rd2rk Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 Website servers, for the sake of responsiveness and bandwidth conservation, are generally set to have a maximum number of active connections, after which the connections are dropped on a first in first out basis. At least, that's how it was back in the ancient times with which I'm familiar....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBD_123 Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 I conserve cookies from this site and it signs me out after a variable period too. I assume it is either resource management as rd2rk suggests, or a security measure... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
