It looks like either you and I are the only two who have "figured this out", or maybe I am the only one who has, while you don't need to because the login time constraint might not apply the same way to administrators as it does to rank-and-file members.

from the beginning
I used to push the little button that says "stay logged on" or something like that

[WithoutAPaddle]

But most others don't, as evidenced by the fact that when I look as the Users Onlne stat's I typically see a dozen or more guests, but only one or two logged in users. Many may not even be aware of that Profile feature.

and I think those guests are bots

I lost my log in capability for a day, but just now got it back.  I don't have the wherewithal to verify this experimentally, but I think that the log in windows that are the ones incorporated into the home page that a visitor sees, at the top of the home page and the bottom, do not work, but I got in by instead clicking the "log in" button just below the upper log in window, which took me to my dedicated log in page - the one located on the middle of that page - and clicked, "stay logged in", or however exactly it is written, and now I'm in.

But to reiterate, the two, log-in windows on the visitor accessible home page still do not work,  I have to call up a dedicated log-in page to log in, and I have been erasing the default value of minutes and checking the stay logged in box.

this might be a new error this week
I could log in at the top of the forum but now it doesn't work
I have to click the log in link
it pulls up the page with only 1 function and I can log in

Well, can you at least process their registrations so we'll have someone to play with?
