why do i have to login every time even though i always click the automatically box
am i doing something wrong?

I think pato has the same problem.

I can't think of any reason it won't keep you logged in, unless it has something to do with cookies. Check that you have enabled cookies for the forum, this might correct it.

thanks michael have done what you said and up to now it
seems ok, will let you know if it happens again

Pato's problem is every time he sees mention of cookies, he eats them

i spoke too soon, had 2 login again

It might be the board you've selected in the User Control Panel. Not sure, but if you're on subsilver2 it might work if you change it to prosilver.

To do this:

Click on User Control Panel (above topic subject).
Click on Board Preferences
Set My Board Preference to prosilver.

prosilver is much better than the old board. Lots of useful extras - so, if you do select it, bear with it and take your time to discover what is does. If you need any help, let me know.

when i checked it was on prosilver so i will see what happens next time
thanks for your advice
