Persistent Login
bjaspan - October 17, 2006 - 13:58
The Persistent Login module provides the familiar "Remember Me" option in the user login form. The module's settings allow the administrator to:
- Control how long user logins are remembered.
- Control which pages a remembered user can or cannot access without explicitly logging in with a username and password (e.g. you cannot edit your account or change your password with just a persistent login).
Each user's 'my account' view tab gives them option of explicitly clearing all of his/her remembered logins.
Persistent Login is independent of the PHP session settings and is more secure (and user-friendly) than simply setting a long PHP session lifetime. For a detailed discussion of the design and security of Persistent Login, see Improved Persistent Login Cookie Best Practice.
