I could have sworn I used this module in the past, but I can't seem to find it. I'm looking for a module that would force a logged-in users to re-login when they try to visit the administration section of the site after not having visited that part of the site for some time.

The idea is they can create content, be logged in, etc, without hassle, but then when they try to go somewhere sensitive they have to log in again.

Does anyone know of a module that does this?

have never heard of this but I can see why it'd be useful! for the sake of completeness, what drupal version are you targetting? (if any) – Alex Apr 18 '11 at 20:25
@Alex - D6. Thanks! – Justin Apr 18 '11 at 20:27
For what it's worth: I haven't seen a module like that and I couldn't find it either. Can you elaborate about the module you remember using? Any details? – marcvangend Apr 19 '11 at 12:37

You are probably thinking of: Persistent Login.

The Persistent Login module provides the familiar "Remember Me" option in the user login form. The module's settings allow the administrator to:

  • Control how long user logins are remembered.
  • Control how many different persistent logins are remembered per user.
  • Control which pages a remembered user can or cannot access without explicitly logging in with a username and password (e.g. you cannot edit your account or change your password with just a persistent login).

Yes, this is exactly it! Thanks. Funny, with so many modules I can never remember them all. Usually I think, "I know I have done this before..." thanks again – Justin Apr 22 '11 at 4:41
