Hi, According to the following list of unanswered threads, there has been several people frustrated about how to accomplish "remembering" a user once (s)he has logged in:

http://www.ez.no/community/forum/suggestions/remember_password I've been wondering about this for a while myself, and as it turns out, it wasn't too hard once I started looking. The key is to provide a value to the CookieTimeOut parameter of the [Session] block in the site.ini file. The value you provide, should be the amount of seconds you want the cookie to last. However, AFAIK, it's still not possible to have a check box allowing users to select themselves whether they would like their login remembered or not, a feature that I feel is greatly needed. In addtion, there should be an INI setting where one could specify whether remembering logins should be allowed or not, to prevent users from doing so if you do not want them to. Sincerely,
