Why do I have to sign in every time?

This has happened in the past, but lately I’ve had to sign in each time I come on the forum. Only happens on my I-phone not on MacBook. It won’t remember me even tho the box is checked for remembering 30 days. Anybody know how I can figure this out? Thanks

Don't remove cookies before they have finished baking.

How do I do that on an I-phone 15? -
Settings > Safari > Advanced
Make sure you don’t have Block All Cookies “on.”

I'd use a hammer.....

Block all cookies is not checked
-
Are you using private browsing? Also check the advanced side of the picture Brian posted to check.
Last effort would be to search "cookies" and see what the phone comes up with. -
Private browsing is checked. That’s beyond me. Should I uncheck? The weird thing is, I didn’t change anything before this sign in problem started

Now it suddenly appears to be functioning properly again, without my having done anything. I will keep you apprised

Sounds like an ordinary day at Vanilla to me!

Now it’s back to making me sign in every time. Fer fox sake. Any other ideas, fellas?

Go into that Website Data area at the top of my print screen and see if there is any data related to polkaudio.com.
Are you running any extensions? (Settings > Safari > Extensions)

Are you a bot?
(sorry, probably not the best time for a joke!)

Also, how much memory do you have left? I wonder if it might be deleting cookies to save memory? That might be a stretch, though.

Private browsing would not keep cookies. Uncheck it and see if it changes. You may have gotten an update and it may have changed some things. It happens to me on Android sometimes. -
I was not blocking all cookies. I use Safari. My settings seem to resemble yours. I deleted all history. Now it’s seemingly working again. I’m going to shut down and restart.

Not working again. Stopped at Verizon store and they thought Prevent Cross Site Tracking had been turned on by some kind of update but despite being turned off I still have to sign in every time on the I-phone although not on the MacBook. There’s no app for this forum, correct?

How frustrating.
I’m not using an app. Just have the “recent discussions” page saved to my Home Screen.

This thread has put me to mind of Bruce Cockburn's great song Pacing the Cage.I've proven who I am so many times
The magnetic strip's worn thin
And each time I was someone else
And everyone was taken in
Powers chatter in high places
Stir up eddies in the dust of rage
Set me to pacing the cage
