# Auto-login

 * I’d like to create a plugin, that auto-logins my users (commenters and writers
   too), using my site-wide login system. Without clicking “Login”. I guess I have
   to override some function, that is checking the curent user on every page, but
   if I override get_currentuser() nothing happens/changes. Other auth plugins also
   seem to require clicking “Login”. Any directions? Thanks!
