If the cookie timeout is set too low, or the user idled for a long time, vbulletin may log them out and that message would appear. It is not a problem with vbshout as far as I can tell.
It's doubtful the error is with the shoutbox, I take every measurement to ensure session data is carried over. Are they using the remember me checkbox?
well i was talking to my server tech and hes telling me he thinks its something with the shoutbox, but i dont see anyone else having these issues.
could this be a cookie issue as well?
because i never setup the cookie page.
see here:
yes they are using it.
i just spoke to my server admin, he advised me he thinks the issue is due to me being on php 5.3
and that vbulletin 4.0.3 apparently has a bug in it that is causing this issue.
maybe you could check it out and verify it.
