All you have to do is enter an email address and a password & as long as you touch the admin panel at least once every two hours, you stay continually logged in. I believe you can even set this to a longer time period before getting logged out, although I touch our admin like every 3 minutes all day long so it isnt even a thought for me to increase from 2 hours.
Besides that, the reason for having to enter both a user name/email AND password is for additional security versus only entering a password, why would anyone think it was wise to cut the login security in half?
If you think having to re-login after 2 hours maximum is bad, the cart platform we were using prior to CS-Cart REQUIRED an admin to re-login every 10 flippin minutes, that was enough to drive me insane!
We actually don’t use it for the admin login; we use it so our customers can incorporate our cart as part of their websites. It eliminates the need for a password, creates a smooth transition from their site to ours, and lets us control what membership they login under and the prices they see. I finally figured it out and have posted the results below :
I don’t think so, as they only have a banner with a link to our site. We are only hosting one site. This just creates an easier way for them to access our products.
