About Stop Logging Me Out
From the official readme · v1.1.1Description
WordPress asks you to reauthenticate when your session expires, or for other security reasons. This is great except when you’ve just done so (usually in another tab), and WordPress mistakenly believes you need to do it again and again.
This plugin modifies a small portion the login system to try return you to the page you were on. It may not work in rare instances where your login system is already being modified by other third-party code, and in a way that isn’t completely compatible with the default WordPress functions.
Installation
Install in the usual manner by searching for this plugin by name, or uploading it, on your Add Plugins page.
No configuration is required but it only fixes reauthentication pages generated after the plugin is installed, so visiting any that have the old reauth=1 in the URL will still trigger WordPress’ bad behaviour.
