We-ll, You dont really need an auto logon feature, If you told your computer to remember the password, All you need to do is just hit the post button - The logon forms are done for you.

Funny. I was automatically logged in. Your cookies are being retained across sessions, aren't they?

There's apparently a timeout on the login. Usually when I come here I'm logged in, but sometimes I'm not... and since you can post anonymously, often I don't notice until after I've posted.

Edit-
Also, and Tung said, make sure cookies are enabled for this site.

Wierd, I'm almost always logged in. I'll take a look at the code.

Kornel, what web browser are you using? Could this be a Firefox issue rather than a MiniBB one?

Edit- I'm using Netscape, which is Firefox based, and also appear to have an automatic logout sometimes.
