Auto logging out after each visit

[StephenSLR]

I notice I have to log in every time; I'm using Firefox; which remembers the password but every time I visit the site and want to reply; I have to log in again.

I've seen some sites have a 60 log in period; some are permanent; every time you visit on the same pc; you're always logged in.

Is the auto log out intentional or is there a setting I can change to make it permanent?

You must have Firefox not remembering passwords as I have no issue.

You are not using the Firefox "New Private Window" are you?

If you are then that does not remember anything. Newspapers online only allow a few stories per month (Sydney morning Herald is 30 free stories a month or 10 if I am overseas) so I use the New Private Window & can keep reading. Works well with all overseas papers I read daily

It remembers the password; when I go to the log in page the password is sitting there in the password box; all I do is click 'log in'.

This time when I replied I was already logged in but I've been surfing the web and hadn't closed down my browser since last posting.

It may be a setting?
