Well I attempted an install of this module in my X-Cart version 3.5.11, but it doesn't work.
I don't know much about cookies so I'm pretty much at a dead end. If anyone has successfully installed this on their 3.5.xx cart I would love to get a fix so that this works. Thanks, Adam

As mentioned, I'm working on many things currently, and don't have the time to work on this now, though if there is interest I may create a mod for this in the future. In the meantime, if somebody really wanted this I'd be willing to construct it at an hourly rate.

I just ordered this mod and it works great, really good for the returning customer to not have to log in again!
I'd recommend this mod. Philip.

Any chance you'd share the basic idea of how you built this mod so I can add it to my store? If you give me a brief explanation I can probably code it myself. I've got so much customization on my site, I'd rather build my own version than order the mod.

Set, reset, and read from a cookie The mod will integrate no problem regardless of customization.

Did you decide to store the password in a cookie or are you using some kind of system to generate a unique token/hash value that can be used to log the user in automatically without their password? The password way is easier, but less secure. I've never built an auto-login system that does it the other (more secure) way, but that's the way I'll probably do it.

I stored an encrypted password in the cookie.

Gotcha. So you're actually encrypting the user's password, saving as a cookie, then when they come back you pass the cookie and decrypt it. Did you make your own encryption method or did you go with x-cart's text crypt functions.
I could be wrong, but It seems like if you're passing the x-cart encrypted password , you might be opening a bit of a security hole since that would make it easier to guess the salt used by the x-cart crypt function. Just a thought. Anyway, thanks for letting me know how yours works. I will refrain from posting a detailed "how-to" if I do this mod for my store.
