After reading Cathal's excellent post ("a new solution to an old problem") last fall at
www.dotnetnuke.com/Community/Blogs/ta...
I set PersistentCookieTimeout in web.config to
<add key="PersistentCookieTimeout" value="20160" />
on a number of my sites and was quite happy only having to login to sites I had not visited within the last couple of weeks (20160 minutes = 14 days). This has not been working for the last month or so - after an upgrade to 5.4.x (or possibly earlier).

I've not had time to thoroughly test this, but I've tried clearing out my cookies, confirmed the setting remains in web.config, and haven't found anything in the forums on this yet.

Is anyone else seeing this or have potential solutions I might try?

John,

There is a new setting in the Host Settings called "Enable Remember me on login controls".  You may want to see if that is checked.

Yes, it is checked on the Host Settings page - and has been. I'm now checking to see if the timeout matches the 45 minute session timeout, or some other value... Thanks Bill.

Ping.

I'm still having this issue on many sites and suspect others must be having it too...Any other suggestions?
