There's a tick box when you log in called "remember me". Despite clicking this, I sometimes get logged out - why?

What browser are you having the problem with?
I get this every time I come back to the forums whether I'm using Chrome or Firefox, but it still remembers my skin preferences, and as soon as I click on a thread it shows me as logged in again.
Clearing cached pages and cookies usually helps too.
Thats what I meant!!!
This happens if you use a domain that isn't vbulletin.thesite.org to access the boards. For example, if you log in at vbulletin.thesite.org.uk - it will show you as logged in on any page on the forums - but whenever you go back to vbulletin.thesite.org.uk URL you will be shown to be logged out.
This is a cookie issue - our cookie settings are set to work on the domain vbulletin.thesite.org
If that's not it - make sure in Chrome you've set in Options -> Under the hood -> Content settings -> Cookies:
"Allow local data to be set (recommended)"
If it's still not working- you can try clearing cookies in your browser - or try in another browser and see if you're getting the same problem. In Chrome you could install the IE Tab extension to make it simpler to switch between browsers.
Anyway happy to do more digging if that hasn't identified the problem. Give us a shout.
