All these problems are related and are because the server is dropping the forum session from it's memory.

The users forum session should be kept in memory for 20 minutes after the user was last active, but if there is a problem with the server and it's app pool keeps recycling then it will loose this session data from it's memory coursing the problems you mention.

You should get your web host to look into this issue on the server as app pools should only ever be recycled every 24 hours or more unless there is a specific problem on the server.

If you have no luck with your web host you can edit, in notepad, the file, functions/functions_session_data.asp and follow the instructions in that file so that the database is used to store the forums session data instead of the faster web server memory.

Hi

Firstly , great forum software., Im really enjoying using it.

Ok, I am having issues with some of my users.

First:
Some of myusers are reporting problems with registering. When the fillout thier details to register, and hit the Register button, they get anerror claiming that they dont have permission.  This had onlyhappened with a couple of users but it does regularly happen.

Second:
Registered users are having problems editing thier profile signature.Specifically (so far) it happens when they try to add the forum code todisplay and image as a banner. The enter the code and URL and hitUpdate and again they get a permissions error.

This happens to regular members and members in the Moderator group.

Third: (less of an issue)
When Im in the admin pages and make changes I often get a permissionserror once I hit the update button to make the changes happen. I find Ihave to log in again.

Would I be correct in assuming that there is a time out setting that could be changed?

Since all the problems appear to be permissions related, are they all the same problem?

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated
Cheers
