Make the Existing Authentication Persistent

[eccentriccoder01]

Every time the page is refreshed, we have to log in again. A fix is needed for this.

Hello @eccentriccoder01 , I would like to work on this issue,can you kindly assign it to me?

@Martina-stack thanks for your interest in this issue, but now I guess this issue has somewhat been solved... Go through the main deployment at https://talkheal.streamlit.app, if you notice any other auth related issues, let me know here, we will change the issue description accordingly and duly assign you :)

The issue is alive again and the description has changed since the persistence problem in authentication seems to have come back. Switching pages doesn't need log in, but refreshing does need.

@Martina-stack @rishika638 would you like to work on this? I wish I could assign you both, but I'll have to assign the one who responds first as per GSSoC rules.

Hi @eccentriccoder01 , I’d like to work on this issue.

I can look into session persistence across refresh and test it on the deployed app to identify the root cause.
Please assign it to me if it’s still available. Thanks!

Sure @sohamx0, I'm assigning this to you
Keep notes of the points mentioned above, All the best👍🏻
