I need to ensure that users logged into a secure area of my site are logged out after a set period of time - I’ve scoured the documentation, the forums, etc. and nothing clearly states this is possible - is it?
Any advice/help is appreciated.

There is Security and Sessions Preferences. If you use sessions only, the session will expire.
That’s the only standard thing I’m aware of.

You could have a… wait for it… meta redirect to your logout url, this of course would reset any time the page is reloaded. There might be a cleaner solution of course.

That’s pretty clever… the client withdrew the request, so no worries. Thanks everyone!
