It has been 10 days. Still happening all the time. Just checking in to see if others are still having the problem. I guess maybe this is just taking low priority to the server too busy errors.

The issue has been discussed with Admin. We're hopeful that it will be addressed soon. That's all I know. Sorry, I feel your pain believe me.

Second that!! This obsessive logging in each time is making me looking for alternatives to fitday for that reason alone!

That, and I'm missing a grouping function for food, that would be called a meal!

Suzy's epiphany

Not to mention that even with the Forums one has to log in constantly. It seems like there's an auto log out after 2 hours. And yet we were told that we could stay logged into the Forums indefinitely as of the fall 2011, many months ago.

Of course none of this makes any sense, and "obsessive logging in" is a good way to describe it.

I absolutely agree with you on a)! There is no point in logging users out and a fix should not take longer than 5 minutes, tops. I mean, what's there to change? You just extend the cookie lifetime from 1h to 1year or so. :p

But since this seems to be dragging on, you can at least fix 2) by using Greasemonkey (provided you are using Firefox, but I'm guessing there are similar plugins for Chrome or Opera) and the script "Allow password remembering". This will allow Firefox to remember the password for virtually every password field, but I would strongly recommend using it ONLY for trivial logins like this one and NOT for your banking, or paypal, or email. ;)

Was thinking about starting a new thread but I'm wondering if my problem has something to do with the attempt to address the auto logout issue. Over the past couple weeks, if I leave the site open but unattended or unused for a matter of minutes, sometimes less, the site basically becomes in a state of being perpetually hung up. Updating foods or activities stall and ultimately time out. If, however, I leave the site and then log back in, the site is functional again but sometimes only for a matter of minutes. Anyone else having this issue? I have it on both computers so I'm pretty certain it's not an issue with one or either of them. Any thoughts?

Don't know about the auto logoff issue, that problem never really bothered me, but the problem I mentioned above appears to have been resolved. The site is back to normal from my end. Thanks.

Okay, I left the site for SIX MONTHS, came back, and you still have not fixed it. WHAT IS THE POINT!?

As per the last two posts the recent server lag has made this site unusable.

I should also add that your search tool for adding foods is about two generations old (search for "tomato pasta" and you get all matches with tomato and all matches with pasta). The interface that you use to allow you to edit nutrition for different weights of custom foods is incredibly awkward.

You have no idea how many new users you are loosing to these simple design issues..........

Bye.

The shameful truth. Sorry to see you and others leave. Best wishes! :cool:
