Warning
Using this is a security risk, so please only use it if you know what you are doing!

You are developing vBulletin Stuff on localhost, are running in Debug mode and like me you find it damn annoying having to log in "all the Time", even though the Browser never gets closed?

Then you can use the attached Plugin to disable the Timeout.
When it is installed, you don't have to login again as long as you have the Cookie.

If you install this hack, be even more sure than usual to log out when you're using a public computer.

I'm not going to install it. Thanks for the tip though. And I never log into the admincp from any other computer then my own.

Well, fetch_userinfo() might be called several times from within ACP.
This check makes sure the query will only be executed if this call is the initial call to get the userinfo for the viewing user
But I guess just !$vbulletin->userinfo might work as well and cause less overhead.

Is there a way to have a setting or a link to turn this on and off?

It should be fine as long as you make sure to log out after each session with your site.

Becasue I don't want anybody who does not really know what he is doing to install this.
And if I release it as a Hack chances for this to heppen would be higher
