You would do this by adding cookies. When logging in, the log_in function should check for the checkbox, if it’s set, it should set two cookies: one with the username, and one with the password hash. the logged_in function should check for cookies if the session does not exist yet, and if the cookies are set, if they contain the correct information.

Thank you for sharing this library. I still have one issue and don’t know how I can solve it:

The session library used by CI has a general configuration, where I can set the lifetime for the session. But I want to make the “keep me logged in” function available, where the session will not be destroyed automaticaly after n seconds.

Any idea how I could implement this?

Thank you very much. Working alone with no formal background in programming, tutorials like these go a very long way for me and I’m sure for the rest of us who are trying to learn but don’t really even know the proper questions to ask. Really nice first rate work.

I have some error….
Fatal error: Call to undefined method Auth::process_login() in C:\wamp\www\admin\system\application\controllers\admin.php on line 30
and I have seen in the auth.php, there is nothing about function process_login…
can you help me…?

Offcourse, but I think it's easiest if I simply refer to the user guide: see the note under the section "Passing Parameters When Initializing Your Class"

I’m writing a new Auth lib (it’s going rather slow), and I’ll be writing a tut about it too. Hashing will be included!

I’ll let you know when I get there Or you could subscribe to my RSS feed!

Hi, thanks for the nice tutorial. It is exactly what I was looking for. Where can I find the whole auth.php class?
ps: Nice background
