wp_auth_check_load()

In this article

Loads the auth check for monitoring whether the user is still logged in.

Description

Can be disabled with remove_action( ‘admin_enqueue_scripts’, ‘wp_auth_check_load’ );

This is disabled for certain screens where a login screen could cause an inconvenient interruption. A filter called ‘wp_auth_check_load’ can be used for fine-grained control.
