Auto Login Feature

Auto Login Feature was created by Fendermate
I require an Auto Login feature. I need to track my users but since most first level pages are public pages, most don't bother logging in every time. This feature would also allow other CB plugins to function more effectively especially if my site is to be the 'Home' page for many businesses.
Any ideas or suggestions?

There is no such auto-login available. You'd need to write an integration that stores a cookie with username and password (plain text) in order to allow auto-login as CB is not designed for something as such. Your plugin would then need to check for the cookie, grab it, and execute CBs login function via its Authentication library (cb.authentication.php). If using CB 1.2.2 however you can do a "password-less" login via CBs authentication library.
