I am in the same boat as Tin.

I modified the code and nothing changed. Everything still works fine, but I am still permanently logged in even after I close my browser.

I am using worpress 1.2.1

Any ideas? It would be nice to see a full wp-login.php file from somebody who has managed to make it work.

This would be great, if I could get it working.

Thanks!

Is there a way to make a “remember me” option for comments?

For some reason it isn’t working on my site.

hi. for some reason this doesnt work for me. everything runs smoothly but when i close my browser and reopen it, i’m still logged in. i followed all your directions closely. do you have a wp-login.php already prepared so i can download? i’m wondering if i did something wrong with the modifications.

Just discovered that if a user changes their password, WP sets the cookie for the new password - so that it will always be remembered.

I think the easiest solution is to change the code in profile.php so that it just sets a session cookie - the user will have to log back in next time he comes to the site.

Replace:
setcookie(’wordpresspass_’.$cookiehash, md5(md5($newuser_pass)), time() + 31536000, COOKIEPATH);

with

setcookie(’wordpresspass_’.$cookiehash, md5(md5($newuser_pass)), NULL, COOKIEPATH);

There may be a more elegant way of doing this - by finding out the current expiry date of the cookie, for example, but I don’t know how.

Neil.

I’m glad my comment about passing NULL could be useful.
