FIMBLE Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 i thought it does log you out after a set time? Or is that the Admin Sometimes you're the dog and sometimes the lamp post [/url] My Contributions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celina2007 Posted January 8, 2009 Author Share Posted January 8, 2009 please fimble explain, i didn't get what you said :blink: i don't want to add a Log Out button on my site, so i thought it better to log out automatically after 10 minutes of inactivity. this is useful also in case a customer forgets to click on log out himself.

FIMBLE Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 When you log in as admin after a set amount of time of inactively you will get logged out. However i am not so sure its a good idea in the case of the catalog as it raises some security issues, it is open to session high jackers who could take over the customers sessions. The log out link once used kills the session (should do) and prevents this Nic Sometimes you're the dog and sometimes the lamp post [/url] My Contributions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hotclutch Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 RC2 , do they ? where can i set the inactivity time? The software automatically does this. I experience it when I test the catalog side. Also none of my customers have sessions after about 10mins of inactivity (Who's Online). I am not sure where the inactivity time is set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
