Steph Jensen Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 I am sure that this is a stupid question, but where do i set the session timeout for users? I remember being able to simply type in the url and already be signed in, but now it seems that i have to log in every time. Is there a setting on the site to define how long it will keep users logged in before auto log off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel F Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 This is defined by the session.gc_maxlifetime setting defined via the php.ini Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, if you are needing to login each and every time, I would suggest ensuring you are marking the "Remember Me" function as this should keep a cookie in your browser which will remember you.

Steph Jensen Posted January 4, 2019 Author Share Posted January 4, 2019 @Jim M the remember me is checked, and it does remember my log in information. But I need to log in more or less every time i visit the site, unless i keep the tab open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that does not help, I would suggest submitting a ticket as it should not be operating in that manner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
