If you’re experiencing the “WordPress keeps logging me out” error message frequently, you’ve come to the right place.

Typically, this issue occurs because of a problem with the cookie that WordPress tries to set to authenticate a login session.

Regardless of the cause, here’s how to troubleshoot and fix this problem.

1. Clear Your Browser’s Cache

The “WordPress keeps logging me out” issue could originate from your browser. The page may be cached in your browser and could be trying to authenticate the session through an expired cookie.

Clearing your browser’s cache will fix the issue if this is the case.

2. Clear Your Browser’s Cookies

Similarly, the issue could be with the cookie that’s already saved in your browser for the site. If the cookie has expired but mistakenly overrides your recent login, it can cause the error.

Fortunately, you can clear your browser’s cookies to fix it.

3. Check Your Browser’s Settings

If that doesn’t work, the problem could originate from your browser’s cookie settings. If they’re set up to force cookies to expire, they need to be changed.

In this kind of situation, the steps below should do the trick for the type of browser you’re using.
