Longer login session timeout

I'm often only watching one weekly show, and switch between my phone and laptop a lot, and I find that almost every time I open drama-otaku, my login session has expired and needs me to log back in. I think the current login session timeout is 1-2 weeks? I'd love if the login session lasted several months
Thanks for building such a great site and community, y'all are the best!

Amrayu78 Hi!
Thanks for the feedback - I totally get how annoying it is to log in every week when you’re just jumping between phone and laptop for one show.
By default WordPress remembers logins for only 14 days (or 48 hours if you don't tick "Remember Me").
I've just changed the setting on the site so that when you check "Remember Me" (or if you"re already logged in), the login cookie will now last 6 months instead of 2 weeks.
Next time you log in, make sure the "Remember Me" checkbox is checked and you shouldn't have to log in again for half a year (unless you clear cookies or log out manually).
Even if you forget to check "Remember Me" you’ll still stay logged in for 30 days (instead of the default 48 hours).
So in both cases you're now covered for weeks or months, not days.
