Remember Me for basic and LDAP authentication

Since version 12.146.268, users can click on the "Remember Me" checkbox in the sign in screen so that their credentials are remembered for a number of days (30 by default). This feature is available for users authenticating with basic authentication (username/password) and LDAP authentication. It's not available for SAML authentication.

How remember me works

The Sign in screen presents a checkbox with the "Remember me" label. If the user clicks on the checkbox, her credentials will be remembered, and the next time she wants to use Team Password Manager she won't have to enter them:

The credentials of the user are remembered for 30 days by default, or until the user logs out. Note that if the auto-logout feature is activated, when the user is automatically logged out, her credentials will also be forgotten.

The user credentials will be remembered even if the session expires or the browser is closed.

In addition to the user credentials, if two-factor authentication is enabled for the user, the remember me feature won't ask the user for the two-factor authentication code after the first login.

Disabling remember me

The remember me feature can be disabled with the following parameter in config.php:

define('LOGIN_REMEMBER_DAYS', 0);

Changing the number of days the credentials are remembered

By default the user credentials are remembered for 30 days. This number of days can be changed with the following parameter in config.php:

define('LOGIN_REMEMBER_DAYS', XX);

Where XX is a number between 1 and 90 (defaults to 30). So, there's a minimum of 1 day and a maximum of 90. Note that if XX is 0, the remember me feature is disabled.
