Remember Activated Account

Open tylerhcarter opened this issue 10 years ago • 3 comments

Right now every time you log in to WebZash you have to select the account. It would be great if the last activated account was stored on the user side and remembered.

For me, I have several accounts but only use one dominantly. By having the last activated account remembered between logins, you make it quicker to get working.

Another solution for this could be to make a certain account the 'default' account that is signed into when there is no other account active.

Giving this concept a try in my fork. I've isolated the code to the point where it can automatically switch to a given account. The last bit will just be storing the last account accessed in the user's profile, and causing it to be set to 0 when the user chooses 'none'.

One simple suggestion is that you can increase the session timeout so that you can save your activated account for a longer time.

Increasing the session timeout compromises on security because then I’m not logged out as quickly. It also doesn’t solve the problem that there are very few times when I actually want to have no accounts active.

Actually, I can’t think of any time I would want no accounts active.
