It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress. ![](https://ps.w.org/biscotti/assets/icon-256x256.png?rev=3079956) # Biscotti By [Jason Cosper](https://profiles.wordpress.org/boogah/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/biscotti.2.1.0.zip) * [Details](https://bre.wordpress.org/plugins/biscotti/#description) * [Reviews](https://bre.wordpress.org/plugins/biscotti/#reviews) * [Installation](https://bre.wordpress.org/plugins/biscotti/#installation) * [Development](https://bre.wordpress.org/plugins/biscotti/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/biscotti/) ## Description Biscotti is a plugin that modifies the expiration of the logged in user cookie in WordPress to three months, six months, or one year. Because some people hate to have to keep entering their passwords. ### WP-CLI Commands As of version 2.1.0, Biscotti includes WP-CLI commands for managing a user’s logged in session cookie expiration. #### biscotti get This command returns the previously defined cookie expiration of a user. ### Options ``` — The ID of the user. ``` #### biscotti set This command sets the logged in session cookie expiration of a user. ### Options ``` — ID of the user. — New expiration duration. It must be one of the following values: `'3 months'`, `'6 months'`, `'1 year'` ``` #### Note Please remember to replace the `user_id` and `expiration` placeholders with the actual user ID and desired expiration duration when running either of these commands. ## Installation To install this plugin, drop `biscotti.php` into your site’s `wp-content/plugins` directory and activate it. ## FAQ ### How do I work this thing? Once the plugin has been activated, a new option will be available in the WordPress dashboard under “User -> Profile” called “Login Cookie Expiration”. There, you can select the cookie expiration date of 3 months, 6 months, or 1 year on a per-account basis. After updating this setting, you _will_ need to log out and back into WordPress for your new cookie expiration value to take effect. Enjoy your long cookie! ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/9795c19a1886e62140bcac4a0b8e41158b4859f855594206d1f8ccc1cb991660? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Thank you so much!!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/thank-you-so-much-180/)󠁿 [protoo](https://profiles.wordpress.org/protoo/) miz Here 7, 2023 This plugin really helped relieve me of my “WordPress keeps logging me out” frustration, I tried other options that promise the same features before finding this gem, and this is the BEST, SIMPLEST one!
