[SOLVED] Linux Forums timeout
(I searched for "linux forums timeout" at this site before posting this, so please no flames for not looking first )

Whenever I'm idle for more than just a few minutes while logged into linuxforums, I get logged off and I need to log in again. Is there a way I can increase my personal session timeout? I didn't see it anywhere in the UserCP.

thx,
LM

Hi !

14 minutes idle time is default timeout time at LinuxForums. If you want to stay longer then click on Remember Me? checkbox available near Name / Password boxes at Login page.

I hate to play devil's advocate

You should explain this in more detail. Just checking the Remember ME box doesn't keep you logged in it just caches your login information and logs you in automaticly.

Normal security risks apply with cached information.
