Remember me not working about cakephp-remember-me HOT 4 CLOSED

It actually works! It doesn't log me in automatically but when I went to a location on the site that needs authentication, it worked. Any idea on how to make it so it logs the user in when they visit the site when the cookie is set?

EDIT

Got it working, in the beforeFilter I now check if the identity of the user is set ($this->Auth->identity()) and if it is, set the user. The plugin works great, it was a problem the way the application I am working on is implemented.

I have never used TinyAuth, so I don't know the details.
The possibility is that there is not enough user data to be during authorize.

The RememberMe.Cookie setting seems to lack the finder option. Try the following:

                'RememberMe.Cookie' => [
                    'userModel' => 'Users',
                    'fields' => ['username' => 'email', 'password' => 'password'],
                    'finder' => 'auth',
                    'inputKey' => 'remember_me',
                    'cookie' => [
                        'name' => 'rememberMe',
                        'expires' => '+90 days',
                        'secure' => true,
                        'httpOnly' => true,
                    ],
                ],

Does the remember-me plugin automatically detect and read the cookie and authenticate? Or do I manually do that in a beforeFilter? I assumed it would read the cookie automatically. Adding the finder didn't work.

Yes, the RememberMe.Cookie Authenticator is automatically processing cookie.
Is it impossible to authenticate even if you disable the authorize option?
