How to set "keep me logged in" checkbox to disabled by default (for customer portal)?

Question

Hi,

i modified the jira-servicedesk-X.X.X.jar file as desribed here:

https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/how-to-set-keep-me-logged-in-checkbox-to-disabled-by-default-792305989.html

But it didn't work for customer portal. Is there another way to do this?

Hi Benjamin,

This other post seems to cover your question:

https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-Core-questions/How-to-Disable-quot-Keep-me-logged-in-quot-feature-of-the-Jira/qaq-p/933567

It seems that this feature is not implemented. You can follow up and vote for this feature here:

There is a comment with a workaround suggested by Robert Streeter:

"Here is a workaround for 6.6.1 running on Windows as a service. The file to change is login.soy in the installed folder (default C:\Atlassian\Bitbucket\6.6.1) under app\static\bitbucket\internal\page\login. Search for showRememberMe and you will eventually find the following:

{if $showRememberMe}
  {call widget.aui.form.checkbox}
    {param id: '_atl_remember_me' /}
    {param accessKey: 'r' /}
    {param labelContent}{getText('bitbucket.web.login.remember.me.html')}{/param}
    {param checked: true /}
  {/call}
{/if}

Change the {param checked: true /} to {param checked: false /}. The file must be saved as UTF-8 without BOM. Restart Bitbucket. Hope this helps someone?"
