I can’t stay logged in. It doesn’t matter what browser I use. The problem is definitely the website. What is going on? I don’t have problems staying logged in on other websites. This is the scenario . . . I log in. Then I click on community. Then I click on repair or general discussions (doesn’t matter). Then all of a sudden I’m no longer logged on. ??? ---

I get booted out on occasion for no apparent reason (but I can think of a few!) It just happened, in fact. But that’s about it. ---

It’s been happening with alarming frequency during the last few weeks. And only on this website . . . ---

I’ve. Had this problem for months. It’s the new normal. It’s vanilla. Get used to it. And it’s really annoying, isn’t it? @cdaquila, we need you. ---

This only happens to me every once in a while. Oddly enough it happened right after I posted the above (for the second time in 10 minutes. No I’m just magically logged back in without my having logged back in. ---

Oh, @jtsanders, throw up the bat signal and you’ll find me. I wrote to support about this last night. Am awaiting some insight/response. @Barkydog, well played. Do you get logged out when you use the back button? I find that messes me up. But when I return to Vanilla either on my phone or on my laptop, it initially shows me as logged out, but when I click on Community, it usually loads the page showing me as logged in. ---

Same problem here, I’ll log in, go to a thread, post a reply, and get ‘you don’t have the right to do that’ message, have to re log in, then I can post. Has happened frequently the last 3 or so days. ---

I am now having exactly the problem @db4690 described. I’m surprised I got in to make this comment. I was actually at the bottom of the thread where it says Sign in or register to respond. I clicked THAT “Sign in” link and it just had me signed in and opened this box. Prior to that I had logged in 3 times through the link at the top of the page and showed up at the discussion boards as not logged in. ---

I just heard back from support. Apparently a couple of misbehaving servers were restarted, and the problem should improve. ---

@cdaquila thanks, I never really understood the roots of your name, care to expound? I have had no problems so far. I usually hit the home key and go to recent discussions. Not a user of the back key. ---

I’d respond to this post but I can’t stay logged in long enough to do so! Just started today. ---

I thought it logged me out once but came back again when I did the back key to topic index. Main issue though is with the loading speed on comments. ---

@Barkydog‌, it’s my first initial, last name. When I first created my account 6+ years ago, I didn’t really have a public role, so I kept it boring - I needed an account for support purposes. In my civilian life, people call me Carolyn. The logout problem and the script-loading problem are reportedly connected to the misbehaving servers. If the problem continues, I’ll kick it back up the chain. ---

My login is more stable today, but I’m still getting the script message on page one of most threads. I don’t know but I suspect that it has something to do with one of the ads that you run to help pay the bills. You have a sponsor that is misbehaving, maybe not intentionally but one of their programmers may be a hacker type. [Next page](https://community.cartalk.com/t/i-cant-stay-logged-in/84249.md?page=2)
