This plugin works as when user logged in, it saves a permanent cookies with the same session id, so when the user opens the browser again the plugin searches for that cookie and check for this session if not expired yet, and re-login the user again automatically.
Normally this plugin searches for this cookies whenever the page required login, but admins can choose to make it work in the login page too or at any page.
Cookies stored by this plugin expires if the user normally logged out.
