I'm using a password manager (LastPass) so never have to bother typing the logins/passwords - done automatically.

You can also go to who's online. That keeps you logged in forever as it reloads every 60 seconds. I think Amiga.org automatically logs you out if you don't do anything for a certain amount of time. Who's online gets around this.


This is my problem.  They are logging my out every time I step away or not type anything for a few minutes.  If I am actively using the website, I don't have any problems but logging my out after 5 minutes is rediculous.  

I am already a registered member and it appears that I did not check the box in the past.  My dillema is how do I enable this option now that I am already registered.  Is there a menu where I can select this option.  I did not see a box that says "keep me logged in forever".

Hey Barney, what you need to do is log out.

Once you do that, you will see the login fields in the top right hand corner.  Under the username and password boxes is a check box that says register etc etc.  CLICK THAT BOX!  As others have said, the wording is a bit off as it should say "stay logged on"

That should get you back in the game. ;)

Good luck!

When signed out, open a thread and press reply. The login screen shown there has "Remember me" - checkbox.

I had always wondered why there is a checkbox with "Register..." on the top of the page!

Thanks Amiga CDTV, that worked.  I found the "remember me" box.
