Every time I go to the forum I have to log in. Is there a way to stay logged in?

Yes there is, but I'm not sure how I did it.
I think when you log in you have the option to stay logged in.
Maybe we can find an @admin

By default, the login is valid for approximately 1 year through browser cookies. If it doesn't work, then it's related to browser's cookies due to one or more of the following:

1) Your browser settings use the delete files upon exit option.

2) You're using software, such as security or clean-up tools, that is removing browser files.

3) You're using the log out link.

4) The cookie for f150forum is corrupt in your browser.

If the latter, you have to delete the cookie in your browser. You can delete all Cookies or some browsers allow to selectively delete cookies.

I have to log in on desktop. If I pull up the site on my phone, I'm logged in always.

Your case might be different because you have a google-based account and the OP has a standard username/password account. They work differently. Username/password is usually remembered via cookie that we set for approximately 1 year. The google and facebook login option is session based and that's about 15 minutes or if the browser is closed.

on my computer I stay logged in but on my iPad I don’t. Yesterday I deleted all cookies but I see this morning that I still have to log in on the pad.
