Mozilla Firefox Support Forum: Stay Signed In option?
Greetings, all:
I have made a feedback few times for this forum here, to have a Stay Signed In option.
Every so many minutes, I get to be signed out, most probably, as a security measure. This then requires me to log in each time, which is not all too bad, but still a bit annoying.
A "Stay Logged In" or "Keep Me Logged In" option is a normal thing on nigh all sites, it would be lovely to have it here as well?
Thoughts?
Kindest regards: Ben

Hi
Are you using a private browsing session in Firefox when you visit Mozilla Support?
I find that missing one day results in having to log in again.
Are you using cookie related extensions ?
Start Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration or if userChrome.css/userContent.css is causing the problem.
- switch to the Default System theme: "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Themes
- do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Troubleshoot Mode start window

Clear the Cache and remove the Cookies for websites that cause problems via the "3-bar" Firefox menu button (Settings).
"Remove the Cookies" for websites that cause problems:
