    My wordpress install isn’t recognising the login on my browsers. I’ve used OSX and Windows, with at least two different browsers on the each. My WordPress login times out after five or maybe ten minutes.

    Which means lost comments and lost blog posts.

    Desperate for some ideas ?

    Sounds like something is destroying cookies or session data on your machine.

    Yeah, thought of that. DIfferent browsers on different machines still have the tsame problem.

    Have you tried:

    – deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem. If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).

    – switching to the Twenty Ten theme to rule out any theme-specific problems.

    – resetting the plugins folder by FTP or PhpMyAdmin. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.

    In fact, I recently migrated hosting providers. Finally got away from the crap & bad technical support that is MediaTemple and moved to Linode. I was hoping that the migration would fix it. I disabled all plugins as part of the migration and re-enabled them one by one.

    Is there an override in wp-config that might help ?

    No – there’s nothing that I know of.

    Thanks for taking the time to help. I’ll try the plugins idea some more in my next outage schedule.
