This is a minor thing, but I've noticed that now I have to login to Tethys every time I access it in my browser. It is kind of a pain to have to login all the time especially with the new captcha. Is there a setting to keep you logged in?

Thanks,
Michael

Yeah, there are three session security settings in the settings.py that you configure as you please. These are shown below (with their defaults).

SESSION_EXPIRE_AT_BROWSER_CLOSE = True

# Warn user of forced logout after indicated number of seconds
SESSION_SECURITY_WARN_AFTER = 840

# Force user logout after a certain number of seconds
SESSION_SECURITY_EXPIRE_AFTER = 900

I should mention that that is a security feature, Michael. So no one could hijack your session...

Now that we can specify whether a settings.py file is for production or not when it is created, maybe we should change what the defaults for these settings are in a development environment.
