Issues with "Remember Me" Functionality and Redirect After Login Using Jetstream and Livewire in Laravel 11
I'm experiencing an issue with the "Remember Me" functionality in a Laravel 11 application using Jetstream with Livewire. Although the session lifetime is set to expire after 2 hours, and both the remember me cookie is correctly set in the browser, and the database column for the remember me token is populated, I still have to log in again after the session expires. This occurs despite having checked the "Remember Me" option during login. How can I ensure that the "Remember Me" feature works correctly, keeping users logged in beyond the session expiry?
Also fter logging in, I am redirected to the / route instead of the custom route specified in the Fortify 'home' configuration. How can ensure that the post-login redirection respects my custom configuration?
For the last point, the "intended" route will always take precedence over the 'home' configuration.
eg, user refreshes page /xyz if this route is protected by auth middleware the user will see the login page. After logging in they will be returned to the /xyz route as that was where they intended to visit.
keeping users logged in beyond the session expiry
Just note a distinction here. They are not kept logged in, rather the login happens silently in the background using the remember me token and a cookie from the client.
During your testing you don't delete cookies do you?
@Snapey I'm not deleting the cookies, I've tested on my production and development server, Mobile phone and sessions are not persistent after time set in session lifetime.
