Is there a way to disable the "Remember me" checkbox on the confluence login page?

Hi Paul,

I'm glad I able to help you little bit. Currently, this feature is not possible to configure via UI.

Cheers

Thanks Suren,

This was very helpful. The tip is a bit old (referring to Confluence 4.1) but it should work. In login.vm for 5.7 I found this section:

#if ($action.shouldRememberMeCheckboxBeOmitted())

<input type="hidden" name="os_cookie" value="true"/>

#else

#bodytag( "Component" "label='remember.accesskey'" "name='os_cookie'" "value='false'" "t    heme='aui'" "template='onofflist.vm'") #end

#end

I can comment out the #bodytag line, but the conditional above leads me to believe there may a way to do this in configuration, rather than changing the code, which would be preferable. I'm wondering if this has been added as a configurable feature since Confluence 4.1?
