Tired of logging in again and again to a Drupal site that keeps kicking you out? You can modify session length, i.e. the length of time that a logged-in session stays logged in, via the ini_set('session.cookie_lifetime'... line in the site's settings.php file. See details in Forum Finds: Modify length of user login sessions.

Hacking Fivestar
Submitted by Drupalace on Mon, 2010-10-25 19:23.
You've got a good point, one I should have thought to mention. In fact, when upgrading my Fivestar module in the past, I have indeed had to be careful to move my custom widgets folder from the old Fivestar folder to the new one. That requirement makes upgrading a bit of a hassle.
An alternative method might be to keep the widgets directory elsewhere, such as inside the site's files/images directory or wherever makes sense, and then tweak the module's code so it looks for the widgets in that location... but clearly, that's no more a solution than what it replaces. Upgrading Fivestar would require making that same code tweak to the new module version, and again with every upgrade.
I would think that a lasting solution would involve the module asking for the location of the widgets directory, and saving that location in the database. Fivestar could then be upgraded in the normal manner, and the new version would know where to look for user-created widgets.
Anyone else have a thought?
