This plugin makes those timeout values user-configurable through the Users admin control panel. == Installation == = Prerequisites = I don't think this will work with versions of WordPress earlier than 2.8, when the current option pages were implemented. You may want to [directly hack the timeout values in the source code](http://www.planetmike.com/2008/06/30/how-to-make-the-wordpress-login-cookie-last-longer-than-two-weeks/) if you're running an earlier version of WordPress. The control panel uses Javascript. It may not work on really archaic browsers. = Installification = 1. Either 1. Unpack the zip file and upload the files to `wp-content/plugins/configure-login-timeout`, or my favorite, 2. Check it out fresh with Subversion:
cd wp-content/plugins svn co http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/configure-login-timeout/trunk configure-login-timeout2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress. 3. Go to Users->Login Timeout to configure your site's login timeouts. 4. You'll have to log out and log in again for the new timeout to take effect. == Frequently Asked Questions == = Q. How many questions have been asked about this plugin? = A. None at all. Not one. Zero. == Screenshots == 1. This plugin lets you easily adjust the login timeout settings. == Changelog == = 1.0 = Initial release
