Answer 1

You just Increase the phpMyAdmin Session Timeout, open config.inc.php in the root phpMyAdmin directory and add this line.

from the wamp folder path wamp\apps\phpmyadmin4.0.4\config.inc.php

$cfg['LoginCookieValidity'] = ;

Example

$cfg['LoginCookieValidity'] = '1440';

Note: short cookie lifetime is all well and good for the development server not for your production server.
