I am using Privoxy (personal web filtering proxy), AddBlockPlus and SelfDestructingCookies (Firefox extensions). I'm not sure which one is responsible, but when they are enabled, the cookies don't last long, when disabled, they do: I have 2 wikis with PersistentLogin for 30 days and they work fine. You may have such or different proxy or extensions, or just a browser setting "Menu -> Edit (or Tools or Wrench) -> Preferences (or Options or Settings) -> Privacy -> Cookies" that only allows session cookies, and it should be possible to "allow" or "whitelist" or "trust" cookies from your own site.

I haven't dug into the back-end of what's happening with Persistent Login, but it doesn't stick for the default 3 days per the docs.

It seems to expire in a matter of hours, if not sooner (I haven't tested).

Looking at the cookies after my login, "persistentlogin" has an expiration of Thursday, September 19, 2013 10:26:20 AM - which is a minute ago And I logged in only a couple of minutes ago (again, not strictly testing, so no strict notes).

However, attempting to edit a page doesn't prompt me for a login -- so it's still valid. And a double-check of the cookies now shows "persistentlogin" expiration of the page-open time.

I'll look into this some more.
There have been some quirks with my hosts PHP install before, so maybe it's related to that.
