Logout from the manager? Shorten the server session? What do you mean by logoff time?

I think s/he might be referring to an occasional tendency to be logged out while working. I asked about it a while back because I wasn't sure if it was a bug or a security feature. ;) I didn't receive an answer (not that I'm complaining at all, so please don't take it the wrong way!) but I've since settled on "bug" because it happens so randomly and irregularly. Sometimes it will be two hours before it will happen, but it's been as quickly as say, five minutes. It's usually when I'm adding a new document and have just hit Save, but sometimes it happens when I edit a document and then save--although that could very well just be because I create more documents than I edit. I think it's even happened when saving a snippet or chunk. When it happens on an editing, the changes have disappeared when I log in again, but the document is at the top of the list of recently-edited document.. It's inconvenient because you lose all the changes to the document and have to start over, but since all of my content is pasted in from other sources, it hasn't really been a major problem for me, so I haven't worried about it too much.

I hope that was clear, and that it was what L i P k I y meant. :)

I've searched this forum but couldn't find an answer. Yet I know it is out there. :)

I've received following question from one of my co-authors:
When you're editing or creating content for a page and you click save to finish editing after a certain amount of time, you'll receive a login again page and all your data is lost. Is the amount of time before this happens changable? So can I type x minutes somewhere in the configuration of v0.6.1.4 and/or v1.1?

no, it's down to sessions on the server. enabling custom sessions may get around it.. you'd need to try it.

There is documentation within the manager/includes/config.inc.php file that explains custom session configuration... Some host servers allow them and others don't... It's definitely worth a try...

Thanks for the -as usual- quick reply. I'll dig in to that.
And if I can't get round it, my fellow editors will just have to save their documents before they start searching the internet for usable images.
