But...the new cookies did not go back under any name I searched; they're no longer there under the domain name, or anything containing the terms "tex"; "txc"; "chl"; "forum"; or the forum server's IP address.
:headscratch
Earlier I said I was browsing on Safari, I meant to say Chrome. I was thinking about my phone. Just the same, it never logs me off. Maybe something in your browser settings? Very strange. When you figure it out, let us all know in case we start having the issue.

I just noticed in my user control panel under profile, there is a "remember me login setting" . It says this, "The "Remember Me" login keys automatically log you in when you visit the board. If you logout, the remember me login key is deleted only on the computer you are using to logout. Here you can see remember login keys created on other computers you used to access this site."
That may or may not be the issue but I thought I would mention it.

But...

I tend to stay logged-on with the forum up in a browser tab. Now, even after being sure I'm checking-off "stay logged in," I'm getting logged off after a couple of hours' inactivity and have to log in again. Happened three times so far since yesterday. No biggie, but I really like being able to look-and-run...er...as it were.
:mrgreen:
I keep mine open in a tab also. It never logs me off. I did check the option to remember me when I logged on. Maybe that is why. I browse using Safari.

There was a catastrophic failure and the backup file was apparently corrupted. That's when the fun began. I was able to fix some of the problems with help from folks on the phpBB support forum, but others were above my limited expertise. Luckily a man on the phpBB support form came to my/our rescue. His name is Robert but he goes by the username Lumpy Burgertushie. He has over 68,000 posts helping folks with their sites. Quite literally, he is the reason the Forum is back. Thank you Robert!!

Let me know if you see any problems folks.

Chas.
Good to see you got it going again. Rumor had it that the forum was done for. Thanks goes out to Robert (Lumpy Burgertushie), love that nick!
