Manage User Session Time-out via Drupal Admin Settings

ReplyDrupalJanuary 18th, 2010

Found this great post to manage user session auto time-out via Drupal admin area.

http://old.nabble.com/I-am-intersted-in-the-TimeOut-module-tt2800133.html

It was exactly what I was looking for. Nothing fancy. Just specifying the idle session time out for each type of user role. Made a few code tweaks and customized it to work for Drupal 6.x. Simple and effect. Works great for my project and saved me a lot of time!

Please note that the session time out is in seconds!

I have attached the module with this post. Feel free to download and experiment. Let me know your findings too.

    Using D6.
    I grabbed the module. Installed and turned on. Can’t find where it’s supposed to let me set this timeout value.

    Can you specify if the changes you made are included in the linked module, or if not, what changes you made to get it to work with D6.

    Also, it would be helpful if you added the details on where this setting is.

    thanks in advance.
