How to change time limit in phpmyadmin (logging in)

Question

I use phpmyadmin to create mysql database. And I have set the auth type to cookie in the config.inc.php. How do I change the time limit so that even if I logged in I stayed

Answer 1

In my case(4.3.8) just replace in config.inc.php cookie to config and add 2 lines like bellow:

/*
 * First server
 */
$i++;
/* Authentication type */
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'config';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['username'] = 'root'; //add this line
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = 'root'; //add this line
