After the update of Persistent Login my site is experiencing a critical error. Rolling back to 2.1.1 works but this update to 2.1.2 breaks my site. Can you check to ensure there isnt a bug. I have it runny with Impreza and WPbakery. It’s always worked fine up until the last update

I’m using a plugin called “WordPress Persistent Login.” However, I’m experiencing a critical issue where user sessions seem to overlap. Despite multiple tests, reinstalling, and even uninstalling the plugin, users are still encountering the following problem:
When a standard user logs in with their username and password, they are sometimes mistakenly logged in with admin privileges, accessing the admin session instead of their own.
Could you help identify what might be causing this, or suggest any fixes to prevent session data from mixing between users?

( when i uninstalled the plugin the issue disappear)

I am using your pluggin on our intranet and for 99% of people it is working perfectly. However a small minority are reporting that it works fine while the machine is active – even after closing and reopening the browser. However, if they restart their machine the session is ended and they need to log back in. They are all using the latest Microsoft Edge. Any idea why they issue could be?

Hey there,

Been using your plugin for some time, love it, but hoping a little something can be removed from my logs:

PHP Warning: Undefined array key 0 in wp-persistent-login-user-count.php on line 566

On an average weekend I get thousands of these notices ??

Plugin Version: 2.1.0

PHP Version: 8.0

I’ll see if I can find the fix myself, but thought I would throw this out here as well, hope you’re having a great week!

Hey, thanks for making this plugin. I’m writing to help you. I was trying to solve my “prevent automatic logout” problem but I could not find a solution, or your plugin, in the directory. I searched for “prevent logout” and “extend session length” and “extend login”. No results. I finally found a blog entry somewhere via google that suggested this plugin.

So I’d suggest you add more key phrases to your listing — you’ll end up with more users!

hello the below query is being triggered on my cron job, its taking 20sec to complete as there is 200,000+ users in our database.

Is it safe to disable this cron job by commenting out line 70 in /wp-persistent-login/wp_persistent_login.php?

Many thanks

Does this work with social login (facebook and google) using Theme My Login

Hi, I bought the premium version, I use peepso and a social login plugin, but neither with social login nor with password I get the count of logged in users.
When I click on the ‘Premium Support’ tab the wp-persistent-login-contact page tells me that ‘Sorry, you do not have permissions to access this page’.
How do I contact premium support to help me with my problem that the plugin is not working?

Hi i want that

from when the “Remember me” key is pressed, we can keep the session open until one of two things happens:

1) If more than 2 years have passed since you logged in (1 year is fine with me
2) If you press logout

This point is VITAL, please.

There is a problem: after logout session still remain active so there is not possible to make another login with the same account when block is active

On line 178 of classes/wp-persistent-login.php the call to wp_set_auth_cookie is resulting in lots of PHP warnings like this:

[29-Apr-2023 23:00:46 UTC] PHP Warning:  Cannot modify header information - headers already sent in /home/.../public_html/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 1089

How do u not have a link to the premium version?

How does WordPress Persistent Login work with the WordPress Maximum Active Logins setting? I have the WordPress Maximum Active Logins set at 1 and the WordPress Persistent Login Limit users to 1 Active Login unchecked. This has been working, but we now have one user on an iPhone with Safari who is being forced to log in each time, even after using WordPress to disconnect all of that user’s sessions and the user starting over for a fresh start.

Do I have the settings done correctly? If so, any explanation for the failure with that user’s iPhone / Safari configuration? Is there a minimum IOS level, or some other issue that might be causing that user’s login not to be persistent?

Thanks very much.

Marty

I’m getting a lot of PHP Notices like this:

PHP Notice: Undefined index: f7a28b2793a158e59e3e6bee8e6c9ce92ec339fee09be0541f566f00a6b0bcf4 in /home/.../public_html/wp-content/plugins/wp-persistent-login/classes/wp-persistent-login.php on line 422

Any way to fix this?

Hi!

A big problem after the update. Conflict with the Wordfence plugin. The collaboration of your plugin and Wordfence causes error 502 after logging into your personal account. We had to remove all your plugins. The error disappeared when we disabled and deleted wordfence, but if we installed it again, everything collapsed. As soon as your plugin is disabled, everything works stably.

everything is OK.

Hi, do you have education or student discount?

When using mobile devices like ios and android, it seems not working to me.

Every couple of hours of being idle or have multiple session it will logged me out.

I already tried to enable the “Allow duplicate session” but still did not work.

Please advise.

Hi

Why my site get a lot of spam and hacker try to login on my website when active your plugin?

This is the second time.

The first time, when I installed your plugin, then get a lot of spam and hacker try to login on my website, every day around 50-100 spam and hacker try to connect to the admin page.

When I have disabled your plugin, then the spam and hacker was stopped too.

Yesterday, I have active your plugin to try again, but until now, I already get around 20 spam and hacker try to login to the admin page.

This is very dangerous and bad, do you know what is the problem?

Thank you

Hi,

The reason to pick this plugin is to avoid auto log off on our website and keep them login 365 days unless someone logout manually. But this is getting auto log off even though we set it up with all the right settings on pro version.

Let me know how can i resolve this, or else we stop with the trial version and look for alternate options.

Please respond as quickly as possible .

When I go to this page(https://airdoctorstore.com/wp-admin/users.php?page=wp-persistent-login-account). It showed me “Sorry, you are not allowed to access this page”. But the same plugin is working on another site.

Hi,

The standard login cookie expiration time interval is 14 days, so when a user logs in, and forgot to log out, the account will expire in 14 days, and the user need to re-login.

While it is nice to extend the expiration time to 1 year, it opens a potential security issue, where if the user forgets to logout, the account will remain logged-in for a year!

I’m wondering is it possible to keep the standard 14 days expiration time in the cookie, however renew it every time a user is active on the site (e.g., loads a page). So if the user is active every day, the expiration date will keeps getting pushed down, and the user will be logged-in indefinitely. But if the user becomes inactive and forget to logout, the account will expire 14 days since the last active time.

Thanks

Hi, I am using the theme Master Study LMS and the remember me box is not checked, in the login forms of the theme. Is there any way to fix this???

Hello. I cannot find the login to be able to manage my premium account. I need to change the details for the annual payment. Please can you help.

Hi,

The free version is compatible with woocommerce?

Thanks!

Hi Luke! We just finished doing a thorough testing to figure out why we get fatal errors with the newest update to Yoast activated. It’s Persistent Login 2.0.8. For now, we’ll leave the live site with Persistent Login activated but not Yoast 19.2.

That tells you my priorities, eh? lol

I do note that no one else in the forum has mentioned any conflicts with Yoast, so it seems likely that it’s just us. But I can’t find anything other than this 2.0.8 conflict with Yoast 19.2. I’ve deleted both plugins separately, and reinstalled separately. They refuse to play nicely together on the site.

Any suggestions? Or, I’d be very happy to create an admin account for you on your staging site if you’d like to see for yourself what’s happening.

Thanks much!

The plugin contains a .gitignore file that is ignoring files that the plugin requires to run. Anyone who includes the plugin in a project without using Composer is going to end up with broken deploys

Hi. I made a mistake when i installed the premium version. I did not tick the administrator role and I cannot log into the website. I have deleted the plugin and relevant rows and data from the wordpress data base and went to install it again but instead of taking me to the settings I am just getting the white screen. Do you have some uninstall instructions so that I can set it up correctly this time around

Hi

Could you show me how to change the user login time to 1 month only please?

Because 1 year is very long, I prefer to change with 1 month is enough for my website.

Thank you

We recently implemented WordPress Persistent Login on one of our websites. We are hosted with WordPress VIP (Automattic’s enterprise hosting service).

Within hours of implementation we received a support request from one of our production team members who could no longer access the WP admin. They tried numerous devices and ended up spending their working day using a 2nd person’s account.

Later in a day a second person reported the problem, and an hour after that it affected me personally. Please note we usually have between 10-15 people accessing the admin for content generation, account management and support services at any given time.

In each instance, the front-end of the website was unaffected, but affected administrators would be shown a white page with “502 Bad Gateway” and “nginx” below that.

Clearing cache at all levels made no difference for these users.

Disabling the WordPress Persistent Login immediately restored access to all users.
