Longer Login Session / Disable Auto-Logout

It would be helpful if the dashboard allowed a longer login session. Right now it auto-logs out after some time, which can be annoying when managing servers or doing long setups.

A “Remember me” or “Keep me logged in” option would solve this and make the panel more user-friendly.

    Hello!

    Thank you for the suggestion!

    For security reasons, we’re not able to extend the dashboard login duration or add a “Remember me” option. The auto-logout is intentionally triggered after periods of inactivity to protect account access and sensitive server data.

    For longer setup sessions, we strongly recommend working directly on the machine itself rather than through the dashboard. This avoids interruptions and also provides more stable control during configuration. You can connect using:

    • RDP for Windows servers

    • SSH for Linux servers

    • ILO/IPMI for dedicated machines

    These access methods are designed specifically for extended administrative sessions and won’t be affected by dashboard timeouts.

    Further reasons are that this also reduces load on our host system for all our amazing customers providing a smoother experience to only those who are actively using the site.

    If you are actively using the site you won’t be auto-logged out.

    If you have any questions about accessing your service through one of these methods, feel free to check our guides on how to do this.

    Thanks again!
    - Dan

      Hi Dan, Thanks for the explanation!

      Out of curiosity, what is the current dashboard session timeout duration?

        Hey YuvrajVermaYT,

        That's a good question! To be honest, I'm not entirely sure of the exact duration from my side.

        In general, we may not be able to provide specific details like session timeouts for security reasons. Hope you understand
