Anyone? I'm begging here. --c

Works for me.

JumpD: all you did was change the 3600 in the admincp/global.php file? In one place (that was all I found?)

Thanks. --c

Testing this @10800 seconds ... i'll let you know if this works!

[Primal Rage]

I am testing this as well. Will report back.

[Primal Rage]

I still get logged out regardless of what value i place.

[Bison]

Same here ... looks like this hack doesn't work well. :surprised:

[charlesk]

Would someone who knows how to do this PLEASE share the secret? Having to log in a zillion times a day is driving me batty. Thanks.

Change the colored data.

It works - have been using this for awhile, but you may need to clear your cookie for it to work for you.

I think one of the dumbest things a software maker can do is to protect users from themselves without an easy override. It displays arrogance and immaturity. Even the anti-virus makers allow me to side-step the software's protections. Probably 99% of users admin their boards from a home or secured office login - not a library or public computer.

I can afford a Web server and a vB/IPB or (insert your favorite software here) license, yet I can't afford a computer or Web access - right.

Thanks Twins. That was actually the change I suggested on the first page but it didn't seem to work. I just cleared all the cookies from my site and we'll see if that helps.
