Being logged out

[movierchives]

A couple of members have reported issues with being logged out even though they logged with the forever setting, could one of the mods tell me if I'm using the right settings because I've noticed change since upgrading

Your settings look fine.

It'd be hard to guess why those users were logged out without more information. When SMF sends the login cookie to the browser, the cookie includes a date for when it expires (in the case of "Forever" that date is approximately six years in the future). However, it is ultimately up to the browser to decide whether it will actually keep the cookie until its expiry date. Many modern browsers offer cookie management features that will remove cookies even before they expire under various circumstances. So maybe that's what happened, but it is impossible to say. In the end, only the browser knows what it did with the cookie.
