I don't think there is anything you CAN do except hope it goes away. I have had spells when it happens very regularly for a few days, then quite long spells when the problem seems to have resolved itself, or only happens very occasionally. The advice to make sure you tick "Remember me" when logging in may be good advice but it doesn't really seem to help when the system software has a paranoid spell and thinks some of us needs our credentials checked.

The only good news is that when the system displays your username, clicking on it seems to be enough to let you back in. For a while, many of us had to do the dreaded Recaptcha images every time, and (touch wood) that doesn't seem to happen any more.

I've been using my phone while on our road trip and had to log in every time. On my laptop I do not. Android versus Windows?


Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

@ed-glorius I'm using my Android as I only use my laptop for business. I'll try using the laptop and see what I can see..

Interesting. I have always had to log in every time with username and password. But, that may be related to the browser I use, DuckDuckGo? It is very picky with security issues, logins and tracking.

I know how frustrating this can be. These issues are almost always browser-related. A browser setting conflicts with a setting in the zone's program. Suddenly, you have to sign in again. If it were a glitch in the Zone's software, everyone would have the problem all the time, not just a random group struggling with intermittent logins. I run into it every now and then too. Usually, restarting my computer fixes it. It can also be helpful to make sure your browser is updated.

I guess I need to clarify my earlier comment. I always log out when I am done with the forums, I never just stayed logged in and just close the browser. So logging out, I assume, requires a log in the next time I access the forums.
