Thanks! I was tired of all the issues from people losing their session and always telling them to remember to click that box... I wanted to hack this myself but you saved me the effort... Thanks!

Thank you Phooey

Install

Glad you guys like it. I've never created a product or plugin before, but I'm (very slowly) working on turning this in to a nice simple and small product that would automatically make the template change.

I'm not sure what I thought was correct . Why don't you guys just set cookies time higher, like 99999 instead of modifying the template to force "Remember me" checked ???

Same here, I had to explain every single day.

Great hack! Thank you.

LOL
Even though it saves on less click of the moust :)
But its nice to have

Because if they are auto logged in and you use the hack to remove the logout button once you have banned them then they cannot log out ;)

Installed, what a ripper of an idea. On other forums I visit I forget at times and get dropped out now and then.

For those visiting internet cafe's they'd be pretty darn thick to not clear their sessions prior to leaving, liken it to leaving your card in the ATM and walking off!

Thank you for this. I've had problem with this for a while and kinda tired of saying "check the remember me checkbox when logging in". Hopefully, this will solve the problem. Thanks again.

here is the TMS (template modification system) XML file for this modification. Users that have TMS installed can simply download this file and upload it in their ACP and it will take care of the edits for them.
