You have the long_expiration set to the same default time as the standard expiration (one hour), so you won't notice any different behavior.

One of the places where the browser's "Inspect Element" tool is very handy.

After you log in via the remember me option, check the session cookie in the browser -- does it now have an "expires" attribute now?

Also, what exactly do you observe? After using the remember me option to log in, if you close the browser and then open it again, do you have to log in again?

Hello Anthony,
i don't know where to check the expires attributs in the browser ...
Thanks

Yes, of course, if you explicitly log out, you are logged out and must log in again. "Remember me" doesn't make the logout functionality stop working -- otherwise, what would be the point of logout in that case? "Remember me" converts the session cookie to a cookie that survives longer than the current browser session (i.e., the cookie will still be there if you close the browser and then open it again) -- so, you can remain logged in from one browser session to the next.

Are you saying you want to be able to log out, but the next time you visit the login page, it already has both your email and password filled in for you? What is the point of that? Why not just skip the logout in that case?

Anyway, you wouldn't want to do that because in that case, you would need to store the plain text password in a cookie in the user's browser or in your own database on the server, neither of which would be advisable from a security perspective.

If you want this functionality you have to look outside the box/web2py.

You can maybe use autofill options in your browser or a password manager. Note that this is clientside.
