Cableguy Expert Licensed User Longtime User May 18, 2017 #1 Hi gurus In my ABM webapp, I have a register/login DataBase driven functionality. I would like to provide my users a "remember me" feature... but I have no clue how to go about it. Should I retrieve user IP address and save it on the database?

You should use cookies to store that the user is authed (best to issue a toked/id that you pair with your logged user and verifity it) or use the session attributes to store that the user has logged in successfully. By using a cookie you can set an expire date for that cookie and by using session attributes they will be cleared if the session expires or the server is restarted .... You can check the abmaterial demo project as it uses session attributes (i am not at the pc right now but it was something like NeedsAuthorization) ... Upvote 0
