have you got two copies of the forum open in tabs?
grep is your friend.
Yes..
You need to change the cookie salt so they are not the same.
put something unique.
You can also change the name

When I checked the config file, there is no [sessiontime]. So, I added 60 minutes value to it. the problem is solved. Thanks anyways!
Thanks for reporting back.

session length should be 15 mins default. Unless the config-default.php has been edited, which not supposed to be edited, or conf.php overrules, this is the expected value.

yeah I saw that in conf-default.php file but after adding session time in conf.php my problem is solved
Interesting you didn't change anything else? You said you were viewing two version of the forum in two tabs.
grep is your friend.
NO, dint change any. I meant, I opening dashboard in one tab and general forum page in other tab.
So no other copy of the forum?
If you could reproduce this, it would be useful to make a tiket on github. Does it return when you remove the
$Configuration['Garden']['Session']['Length']
?I suspect is highly specific to setup though or else a lot more people would report it, so it would not be a straightforward entry would require as much support information about specific setup. Probably a link to an example, etc.
It could also be hanging session issues, and cashing issues, etc in which case this is just transitory.

This is weird...i just commented the
$Configuration['Garden']['Session']['Length']?
and its working fine..I think you may have had multiple cookies, and needed to expire them.

yeah that must be the problem
