Description

Feature request

User type: About to log in

User level: Beginners,

Description

When logging in, user gets the option to select when the volt should be logged out of. Would be useful if this value was remembered for future visits. Every time I visit, I want to log out after 30 minutes but it is a pain to remember and select it each time.

Benefit / value

Makes returning logging in quicker if the user does not have to repeat selecting from a drop down menu each time.

Risk / caveats

Do you just want to remember a what the last setting was every time?
Alternatively give the user a chance to select a default?

Sponsorship

Are you a developer willing to implement this feature?: Maybe, (general programming abilities but no PHP experience)

Can you sponsor the development of this feature or do you know someone who can?: no

No files, tests, or entry points are identified in the issue. First clarify whether the last selected timeout or a separately configured default should be remembered, then locate the login form and its logout-timeout handling. Done means the agreed value is retained and applied on later visits, with coverage for the chosen behavior.
