Hi.

Is the livetime used for login cookie (remember me) the same that the Joomla authentification - cookie parameter (must this joomla core plugin be actived or not) ?

Or have CB his own cookie livetime parameter ?
Is yes, where is the configuration page (i don't find it in CB parameters).

Thanks
Regards.

So the cookie livetime used for the remember-me checkbox of CB-Login is defined on the Joomla authentification - cookie plugin parameters ?
...and the plugin must be activated ?

it's that ?

Thanks.

I never speak of session duration in this topic, but only of authentification cookie livetime.

The duration of the cookie is configurable on Joomla "cookie" plugin (authentification plugin type).
The authentification cookie is used when remenber-me is checked, if the Joomla cookie plugin is enabled.

I think that you confuse cookie and session.
The general use of a cookie is not to be purged when the browser is closed and it's the programmer which define the cookie duration.
It's only the cookie with sessionid which is purged when browser is closed, because duration is set to zero, but this is automaticaly managed by the server.
If this is to store data while browsing, I think it best to store the server-side session, rather than locally in a cookie.

So where to configure the cookie duration used by CB-Login "remember-me" check box, this is the reason of my question in this topic...
