My newest problem seems to be now the opposite. Ever since returning, being prompted to change my password to length of in-use security ramifications, and such, if I leave TFP idle for any longer than 15-20 minutes, it now automatically logs me out.

And this is still with the 'remember me' box checked every single time I log in; perhaps it's just a minor glitch in settings on my part.

Make sure that your cookies are enabled, at least for this site. Not only did I reset passwords, but reset the cookie settings so that people would be forced to log back in.

When you say 'cookies enabled', where would I find this option to rejigger?

You know what, the above is semi-rhetorical, because I used to know what this means, but I'll re-check my CCleaner settings to allow 'tfproject.org' and my browser's website settings in regards to cookie storage.

But, is there a 'cookies enabled' setting hidden in my UserCP here on TFP that I'm not aware of, just so I don't go in circles?

No, enabling cookies is a browser option. They're normally enabled by default though, so unless you've changed that it's unlikely that's the problem. CCleaner could be the culprit if you haven't set tfproject.org and www.tfproject.org as exemptions.

Yeah, perhaps this is the most likely culprit. The first things I did when I came back from overseas and back to my daily monotonous routine was change my outdated password because the website prompted me to do so, and then upgraded my CCleaner version.

Forgot to mention: I edited the site preferences for TFP (browser-wise), cleared out all the cookies, then let them reload again.

Simultaneously, I checked that 'www.tfproject.org' was among the cookies to keep in CCleaner (it's currently the only one there as of now).

I'm not sure which of the above steps worked it out, but I'm not faced with incessant auto logouts and re-logging back in again.

Thanks for the attention and hints guys.
