    Anybody else having this issue? Been this way for many months. About 80% of the time, I am logged out even though I choose option to stay logged in. Very strange. Toggles back and forth.

    Yeah I have the problem too like you said around 80% of the time. I just thought it was because of my cheap Cricket phone but it must be something more than that.

    Only issue I have with this site is on Android phone and tablet. I get pop-up ads from hell. I don't get them on my Windows 11 desktop and Linux Mint laptop.

    Ditto this. Same for my iPad on home WiFi. Those are the only devices that I use for access.

    Weird. You could try going into your browser settings and clearing the cache and cookies for the site. Every so often I get logged out, but then it won't let me log back in. Typically stems from a cookie acting up, so once I clear out site stored data it's good again for a few months.

    But yours sounds like a security setting with your browser or antivirus software that's purging or otherwise deleting cookies from the site. Check the settings of each regarding cookies/site permissions in general, and under your browser you can look at the site permissions specific to TSF. (e.g., with Chrome go to Settings -> Privacy and Security -> Site Settings -> view data and permissions across sites -> TheSteelersFans.

    Only other thing I can think of is device restrictions, but that seems unlikely.

    Today my iPhone started doing it

    My iPad did not

    I rebooted my phone and the problem went away today

    Once a long time ago I had to delete cookies

    This issue seems to be fixed now without my having to do anything.

    Been about a week with never being signed out unexpectedly. Any others here who had the same issue also get theirs resolved?

    Wonder if admin here did a site correction/maintenance of some sort.

    The site seemed to be down a short time this morning. When it came back, so did the log in issue.

    I did not have to clear cash this time or last time. Have not had issue since it cleared itself many weeks ago, now just starting again. Definitely a site issue, not on my end. Probably others having same issue, as they did last time.

    I noticed the outage this morning, and had to log back in afterward as well.

    Did you only have to log back in once? It's not uncommon for that to happen after an outage.

    I have to constantly log back in. Last time the site had the issue, myself and others commented that we were signed out about 80% of the time even though we chose to stay logged in. I think last time this was a problem for a couple months, but it suddenly went away.

    I`ll try to comment on this thread again when it gets fixed.

    Gotcha. I'll see what I can find. If it ever does that to me - which it has periodically - I clear the TSF cache through Chrome's settings. But I don't know what's causing it.
