    Hello everyone!

    I'm seeing an issue with my DNN 3.2 site that when I am logged on as a user and click on approx 8 different pages I get sent to a log on screen. I never really noticed this before, but I can see it would be an  issue with the users. Has anyone seen this behavior before and knows how to fix it?

    Thanks on advance.

    I've seen this happen before when the user account didn't have the correct permissions to view the page. This shouldn't happen for links in the menu, but can happen if you are using the Links module.

    Have you changed your timeout value to a small number in web.config??

    Where are you running your site? In development off localhost? or as an external public site?

    Right, I would understand that if the permission was not set for that user to view the page, this is not the case in this matter. The pages all should be viewable, but just kicks them out after 8-9 different page loads.

    weird.

    No changes to web.config files from me. My understanding that is that that setting only is activated if the sign in is away from the keyboard for X amount of time, not is the user is active on the site.
