Simple Remember Me

Post by suthex »

Gang, I need some help ...

I need to find a simple way to record FEU username and password into a cookie when "Remember Me" is checked, so that the next time user comes to the login page, these fields are prefilled from the cookie.

I understand this is different than how remember me works today.

Has anyone written this type of logic?

Hi,

I haven't used the FEU module yet, but you should try searching the forums.  I just did a quick search with the following search terms and the second hit (your post was the first hit) looks like it might be useful to you:

Thanks for the guidance. I have looked at the few posts on this topic, many describing what appears to be a fixed issue, and the one you pointed out, which does help with the intended purpose of Remember Me (to keep use logged in until the click Logout, or until the cookie times out), but I'm hoping for a more simple solution, one where the username and password are stored and placed into the Login Template of FEU when the login page is displayed, such that user does not have to type same before clicking submit/login ... this is a problem that has been bugging me for a few months, and I know if I rewrite the module, I will get a nastygram from CalGuy1000 ,,, and I definitely don't want to piss him off (fellow Canadian and all-round good guy).
