Oh, I was only trying the beta one. I'll try the 1024 version and check back soon

There are two beta ones.
-XDA 2013 beta
-XDA 2013 beta -1024

The former is the forum default. The latter doesn't seem to have any login issues that I've encountered so far.

Nope, I can't even get the beta 1024 to work. I tried wiping caches, clearing all XDA cookies, nothing works. Every 15 minutes, it thinks I'm logged out still

I've been having issues with getting logged out as well. Trying the 1024 version theme to see if that works for me.

FloatingFatMan · Nov 12, 2012

Still doing it, despite cleaning cache. Not going to use the 1024 version of the new skin, because the new skin is crap. I use the 2010 skin.

Please fix this.

I was having the same issue. I bookmarked the forum overview for my device, but every time i visited i was logged out. A refresh of the same page logged me back in.

I logged out, deleted all domain cookies and session cookies, logged back in -> same issue.
Then i deleted my bookmark (Firefox), did the same thing and recreated my bookmark. Now the issue is gone. Some sort of bookmark session/cookie bug or just dump luck? If i get logged out again i'll post back here.

[edit] My solution was temporary. After a couple of minutes (about 20 or so) i was logged out again.
The Beta 1024 doesn't fit my needs, so that's not an option. It's missing the sidebar as it seems.

I was experiencing the login issue with the skins and switched to the 2013 Beta - 1024... it worked for about a day or so, but now it also signs me off.

I have noticed that if you just keep navigating, you will inadvertantly log back in without going through the log in process. Also something else that works for me: just hit "back" and you will still logged in. Then navigate from there.

I've been logged out almost daily despite checking stay logged in. I've just switched to the recommended theme, we'll see if that works. Thanks to the op.

3raser · Nov 13, 2012

Maybe changing the title from [solution] to [still a problem] would help? Because i don't see any solution.

When you log in, do you check "Remember me?" This will set a persistant cookie to keep you logged in.

Stopped working for me again. I wiped caches and cookies and still no go. All my posting is now done via tapatalk since it keeps me logged in.

Of course

zim2dive · Nov 13, 2012

I am also seeing this problem.. all was working just fine for years, until this past week... I have to log in almost every time. going to try the solution now

EDIT: changing theme did not work for me.
EDIT: I flushed cookies yesterday, and that did not work either.
EDIT: I have seen the issue both with forumdisplay.php and with subscriptions.php

fortunz · Nov 13, 2012

Switching to the 1024 theme hasn't helped me, but I've noticed as one other poster did that as you navigate further without logging in, you're suddenly logged in again.

It's worked for some, including me. But, obviously not everyone. Title updated.

EDIT: Not an advertising issue, as pointed out throughout this thread. Potential solution (works for me) is to change the forum theme. Go to the lower left of the forums and use the drop-down box. Change to the last option XDA 2013 beta 1024. This has fixed the issue for me, as well as for Formicae (post #4) who reported this fix.

Cheers M8, appreciate it.

Been having this on a few machines and it's been bugging me.

zim2dive · Nov 14, 2012

I've tried several themes over the past 24 hours.. and wiped cookies, and cache.. and still had to log in again this morning

bitpushr · Nov 14, 2012

Are those having issues with staying logged in behind a proxy?

I'm trying to figure out why this might be happening with some and not all, could be with proxies dropping some of the headers that the site needs to tell if you are logged in or not.

Nope.
I cleared cookes, everything.
With the checkbox "remember me" checked, when i login i still notice the "nocache=1" in the url bar. And then, if i close the window, i have to re-login again.

At my work (behind proxy) and at my home (direct connection), it's the same.

iBotPeaches · Nov 14, 2012

Proxy or not the result is the same. Wiping everything doesn't help.
