    By default, users have to click this option to be logged in automatically on their next visit.
    Is there a way to change the default, so that they have to uncheck it if the don’t want this?
    I thought it might just be a matter of changing <value=‘1’> to <value=‘0’> (in the line below), but that doesn’t work.

    <input class='checkbox' type='checkbox' name='auto_login' value='1' /> Auto-login on future visits

    Hello Jules van Schaijik,

    Thank you for posting your question.

    Can you give this a try?

    <input class='checkbox' type='checkbox' name='auto_login' value='1' checked="checked"/>

    Let me know how that works out.

    Cheers,

    Hi Dan,

    What you suggest is what I had until two days ago. I changed it thinking it might solve the problem that the “auto-login on future visits” option did not work.  I, and at least many of my members keep on getting logged out.

    So I guess that is my real problem.  Do you know a solution?

    I started a new thread about the login in issue, with a more accurate title.

    Hello Jules van Schaijik,

    Is the new thread concerning this topic but with a different title?

    I am not aware of a solution and I did check with Dan as well. 😊

    Is there anything else I can help you with?

    Cheers,

    Hi Shane, the new thread is here.

    I don’t quite understand your response to it. I mean, it seems to be an issue EE is somehow responsible for, no?  At least to the extent of trying to figure out whether it might be a bug in EE.

    Hello Jules van Schaijik,

    I will check and see if this is related to the bug mentioned. If you are on version 2.4, then it sounds like it might be the same or similar bug. I will get back to you.

    Cheers,
    Shane
