Answer 1

For phpMyadmin 5.0.2 running on Ubuntu 18.04, I edited the file as follows:

1. sudo nano /usr/share/phpmyadmin/libraries/classes/Config/Forms/User/FeaturesForm.php

2. find the method public static function getForms() and added LoginCookieValidity field

   public static function getForms()
   {
       $result = [
           'General' => [
               'VersionCheck',
               'NaturalOrder',
               'InitialSlidersState',
               'LoginCookieValidity', //Added this line if it missing
               ...........
         }
   

3. save the file and now you will be able to change the value from user interface.

[Settings -> General -> Features -> Login Cookie Validatity]
