Dear members,

 

I want to increase the session time for users/admins to infinite or until they log out themselves. I do not want the users to log out automatically after 2 hours.

 

I know there are some changes required in config.pho file, can someone please drop me a line of code that I have to put there? 

 

Please drop me a full line of code that I can replace with 2 hours of session time, I need an infinite login session for customers and admin panel. I never want them to log out until they log out themselves.

 

 

My Cs-Cart version is 4.7.2

// Session live time
define('SESSION_ALIVE_TIME', SECONDS_IN_HOUR * 2); // 2 hours

In the config.php file which is located in the root directory of CS-Cart installation

On this, do many of you bother to change this? Any good reason why non-logged in is what seems to me to be very low (2 hours)?

It's effectively an idle time and is used for security purposes.  I.e. if you're away from your desk for more than 2 hrs, then the session becomes inactive until you re-login.  

 

2hrs seems a reasonable amount of time to expect interaction with your site before effectively logging you out.

// Session live time
define('SESSION_ALIVE_TIME', SECONDS_IN_HOUR * 2); // 2 hours

 

 

For infinite, can I make it as following, for 1 year? 


 

// Session live time
define('SESSION_ALIVE_TIME', SECONDS_IN_HOUR * 8760); // 8760 hours in 1 year

Yes, you can if you do not worry about security aspects
