    Hi Folks,

    I mentioned this on another thread and was asked to report it here - I have seen a periodic issue where if I have been logged in from a device for a long period (months in the case of my iPad) - eventually I'm logged out (I'm guessing the cookie times out) - when I log back in, it only lasts for my session - going back and deleting my cookie, then logging back in all is good again.

    The other thread is: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=89098289#post89098289

    And my comment on that:
    Ok - all a bit weird - I had the same problem before (on a couple of devices) - can suggest that anyone with this issue, delete the boards.ie cookies, log back in and try for a few days and see what happens...

    On an iOS Device -
    1. Go to Settings > Safari > Advanced > Website Data.
    2. Click on "Show All Sites" (at the end of the list)
    3. Click on "Edit" (top right)
    4. Find the entry for 'boards.ie'
    5. Click on the red circle, the 'Delete'

    PS @boards.ie devs - I _think_ there is an intermittent problem where the cookie has timed out, but isn't being removed - so when you log back in, you still have the timed out cookie - hence when you go back the next day you're logged out again.....

    Thanks for letting us know, logging in/out multiple times a day, I've also noticed this myself occasionally. Will look into this when we get a chance.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
