Some of us have been having problems with the auto-login feature, with having to log back in when we've been off the forum for a while.
I made some changes to the cookie settings. So, if you experience this problem, DO THIS:
Clear your cookies.
Clear your browser's cache.
Restart your browser.
Log back into the site and click "Automatically log me in".
If it STILL doesn't keep you logged in after doing that, please, please, please post here and let me know. I'm trying to narrow down the problem and that will help me do it.

RE: Auto-login problems - try this first
I had it log me out again but I was away from the computer for a few minutes. Again, I thought it was just an auto-logoff feature of some type and didn't question it. It's sporadic for me because I was on either Saturday or Sunday and it did fine, but today it logged me off. I was on in the afternoon/evening Saturday and this morning afternoon today if that helps narrow down what might be happening.
I will not make any deals with you. I've resigned. I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own. I resign.

Well... If you click "Automatically log in to the forum" (or whatever it says) when you login, you shouldn't ever have to log in again, unless you click log out OR you use a different computer.
Here's the thing. Right now, a LOT of webmasters who did the upgrade are reporting this issue. The problem is, we don't know if it's because of incorrect cookie settings (that worked but shouldn't have on the previous versions) or if it's a genuine bug in the new upgrade.
So, that's why if you're having the problem, you need to clear your cookies, clear your browser's cache, THEN log in with Auto-login checked, and THEN tell me if it's still doing it.

I'm one of those people that ALWAYS cleans his cache, his cookies and everything else. I hasn't happened this evening but if it does, I'll let you know.

I've noticed the same thing on kcurbex.org... I think it's a bug actually
