Description

By default, WordPress makes your login session cookie expire in 48 hours (or on browser close), or 14 days if you check the “Remember Me” box. This plugin makes those timeout values user-configurable through the Users admin control panel.

Installation

Prerequisites

I don’t think this will work with versions of WordPress earlier than 2.8, when the current option pages were implemented. You may want to directly hack the timeout values in the source code if you’re running an earlier version of WordPress.

The control panel uses Javascript. It may not work on really archaic browsers.

Installification

  1. Either

    1. Unpack the zip file and upload the files to wp-content/plugins/configure-login-timeout,

      or my favorite,

    2. Check it out fresh with Subversion:
     cd wp-content/plugins
     svn co https://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/configure-login-timeout/trunk configure-login-timeout
  1. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
  2. Go to Users->Login Timeout to configure your site’s login timeouts.
  3. You’ll have to log out and log in again for the new timeout to take effect on your session.
