Naaaa. I'm not a big fan of instant messengers. There was about a month long period back around 2001 that I used several instant messengers and I ended up getting nothing done because people kept bugging me constantly and I ended up leaving my status set to "away" all the time so I figured, why bother?

Anyway, if you want to talk, just PM me through the forum and I'll be happy to give you my direct e-mail address. During the day, that's almost as good as a messenger client since I respond to all new mail as it comes in.

I have a fresh install of 4.0.13 and I can say that the mod given does not work on this version. If you check the box it doesn't login, if you don't check the box it still doesn't login.

It appears that purchasing this mod will be the only fix. But $74.99 is a hefty price for a small addition.

wont log in without tick box ticked
 

all seems well with this mod except if u dont tick the remember me box it doesnt log anyone in
anyone found how to get round this????

We've lowered the price for Remember Me from $74.99 to $54.99.

Re: Making it so they don't have to re-login everytime
 

I know that I'm taking you money out but I'm more for the open source whenever we talk about small programs or projects. For the 4.1 version users just make this simple change:
In auth.php (in the root) find the line


and change it with

Edit: Thread was moved to a new thread.

This will keep the user session id for 6 months and everyone who has been logged in will be remembered during that period. What is even more important, anonymous users cart will stay remain. I'm currently work on the wishlist to allow anonymous users to use it without registration (without pain in the ass).

thanks alot, i was looking for this.. O:)

Re: Making it so they don't have to re-login everytime
 

Will this work for 4.0.x? I realize that there's no init.php in 4.0.x, but other than that, can this be adapted?

Re: Making it so they don't have to re-login everytime
 

I added this to our cart on Friday - and had a number of reports over the weekend that Add tocart buttons were not working - NEVER had this problem before and this was the only change - so I have removed it.

v.4.1.8
php 5.1.6
mysql 5.0.22

#
# If the user has been here in the last 6 month, extract the session ID from a cookie
#
if (!empty($HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["xsessionid"]))
$HTTP_POST_VARS["xid"] = $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["xsessionid"];

include_once $xcart_dir."/init.php";

#
# Keep user session ID in a cookie for 6 months
#
if (empty($HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["xsessionid"]) && !empty($XCARTSESSID))
@setcookie("xsessionid", $XCARTSESSID, time()+3600*24*180);

Re: Making it so they don't have to re-login everytime
 

I'm really sorry that you had problems with it. It's the first version of the code and sometimes it simply doesn't work from the first shot. I've opened a new thread
with new version of the code. This version corrects an error which I've found (maybe is the one you had, maybe not).

Re: Making it so they don't have to re-login everytime
 

I don't have 4.0 version so I don't know. You should try it on a testing server to see if it works.
