There is a new member that is trying to post here and is having difficulties. She sent me this e-mail with her problem. Does anyone have any ideas? Here is her question:

"I finally succeed in getting a post up. I'm catsndogs. I'm having problems though. It took several tries. I log in, type the message, try to post and get the message "you're not logged in". I'm guessing I'm automatically logged out because it takes me so long to type the message? Then I log in again but my message is gone so I start over, then the same thing happens. Sorry to bother you with this. Is there some way to not get logged out before I finish? I tried to make a second post to the thread but I keep doing the loop. Thanks for your help."

JUST remember WRITE your PAssword in a notebook, because maybe you can want to stay logger for long time and if you change of PC you can´t remember what was....

This isn't a long term solution, but when I was having problems with the computer I experienced that for a while on anther forum. What I did was copy my post before I clicked submit, then after I logged back in it was ready to go, all I had to do was paste and submit.

Since my computer logs me in everytime I come here, I haven't had to ever do this. Where is the "keep logged" option?

When she gets the log in screen, she should type her name and password and be sure to check the box that says "Remember Me" before she hits the submit button. That works for me, and I never have to log in unless I change computers.

That was the same thing I was going to say.
I had to learn the same thing when I logged in on my laptop - checking the little box when you log in is very important (especially if you're long-winded like me!
).
