Where is this in 4.0? Session expiration (in seconds)

[ctrlbrk]

For the thread 'views' problem, it is an easy test.  I just loaded this thread as a logged in user.  I did not load or refresh any other page (so my last URL is this thread, from IPB standpoint).  I then opened a separate browser and viewed this page as a guest, immediately.  It showed "no registered users viewing this thread", so clearly the timeout period for thread viewers is set far, far too low right now, or there is a bug where another piece of content is being loaded after the fact, and is confusing IPB to thinking I am browsing something different.

Two separate issues in my opinion, from the original topic of who's online timeout.

I realized after I posted this may be a result of caching since I tested a guest user.  Would need two active user accounts to really test otherwise.

In php.ini

session.gc_maxlifetime = 3600

In applications/core/widgets/whosOnline.php change PT30M to PT60M

	public function render()
	{
		/* Do we have permission? */
		if ( !\IPS\Member::loggedIn()->canAccessModule( \IPS\Application\Module::get( 'core', 'online' ) ) )
		{
			return "";
		}

		$where = array(
			array( 'core_sessions.running_time>' . \IPS\DateTime::create()->sub( new \DateInterval( 'PT60M' ) )->getTimeStamp() ),
			array( 'core_groups.g_hide_online_list=0' )
		);

 

 

Also, if you want your online page to show correctly you have to modify the file applications/core/modules/front/online/online.php and do the same thing above.. 

 

Thanks Auto for the tip!

We are fine adding a setting but I am just explaining the restrictions so everyone understands what we can and cannot do inside our software.

Could you make it two settings, one for the ACP and one for the front end?

Also, I don't know if this is intentional or not, but this is a real PITA. If I have the ACP opened in one tab, open another tab and navigate to the ACP instead of noticing that I have a session already open in the browser, I get the login screen, and when I return to the other tab I get logged out.

We don't recommend modifying PHP files directly. It's also worth noting that this is a feedback forum intended to recommend changes for a future release and not a community/peer assistance forum.

I changed 3 settings : 

1 - php.ini --> session.gc_maxlifetime value. Restart httpd after change.
Default : 1440 (24 min.) 
I changed it to : 600 (10 min.)

2 - ACP/Tasks/Onlineusers refresh schedule. This affects only "online users" statistics at ACP. It can be changed manually at ibf_core_tasks database table.
Default : 15 minutes. 
I changed it to : 10 min. 

3 - ACP/Tasks/Clearsessions refresh schedule. It can be changed manually at ibf_core_tasks database table.
Default : 30 minutes. 
I changed it to : 10 min. 

Result :
