How to prevent being kicked off

Asked by Arthur 3 years ago Last activity 3 years ago

I have lost 2 hours of work. Lost a document. Then I tried to recreate it, then got kicket off. Joomla says - "Session expired". This message appeard when I was Editinf from the Fron End, but it did not appear when I was editing and lost it first tme from the back-end.

There is a setting for the session lenth but it is global. I do not want to make my glogal setting to 12 hrs or so. Is there any way to prevent SPB from interacting with session timeout when I am logged in as Admin ?

I do not even understand why am I getting kicked out when I actively work on the page ?
How can I prevent this problem in general ?

Hi,

It seems to be question to Joomla developers to improve that.
But I cannot belive that you didn't click SAVE button every 15 minutes like every smart developer does.

Tip: Set 60 min session in day when you plan working longer and click something in joomla admin area every 20min, this may help.

By now I cannot return your lost work, even if I want to. Sorry. Only maybe hosting company did backup in meantime, if yes - you're lucky.

probably there is also for J4 extra extension for session timer -- at least was for J3 - Session Keeper.
