How long does the site allow members to stay logged on to the site for?  

It seems that although I keep the site open in my tabs I get logged off by the site automatically after a short while.  Although this is not anything disasterous about the site it is becoming annoying having to log in several times during a session in front of the computer.  :(

Right now I think it's 30 minutes but it depends on the settings on Peter's server (I haven't checked).

I will be adding cookies to the site to maintain login but I need to make sure this is secure before going ahead. There are also legal requirements that I have to ensure are adhered to.

In the meantime I'm sorry for the inconvenience :(

Note - no cookies added yet however, while the page is open you will remain logged in.

Cookies will allow you to close the site, come back and still be logged in.
