What It Does

This plugin allows you to take control of the 'Remember Me' login feature for WordPress. You can have it enabled by default, customize how long users are remembered, or disable this built-in feature altogether.

The 'Remember Me' checkbox is present when logging into WordPress. If checked, WordPress remembers the login session for 14 days. If unchecked, the session is remembered for only 2 days. Once a session expires, you will need to log in again to continue using the admin section of the site.

This plugin provides three primary controls over the behavior of the 'Remember Me' feature: Automatically check 'Remember Me', customize the duration of the 'Remember Me', and disable 'Remember Me'.

Note that WordPress remembers users based on cookies stored in the web browser. If you use a different browser or clear your cookies, you will need to log in again.

Compatibility has been tested with specific plugins like BuddyPress and Sidebar Login. Other third-party plugins have not been tested.
