    How to set session timeout

    Hi everyone,

    How do you set the session timeout within the web.config?

    Is the following code correct?

     <sessionState timeout = "15" mode="InProc" customProvider="DefaultSessionProvider">

    Hi Bruce,

    Have a look at the docs to edit the session time out of backoffice users:

    https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/Reference/Config/webconfig/#umbracotimeoutinminutes

    You have to set the following:

    <add key="umbracoTimeOutInMinutes" value="20" />

    Hope this helps!

    Thanks Michael,

    I'm looking to set the Session timeout, not the user time out.

    Hi Tom,

    this is also a session timeout, when Umbraco doesn't receive any request during this timerange the user will need to re-login.

    Hope this helps.

    Hi Tom,

    That is correct. In the timeout property you can specify the number of minutes for a ASP.NET session to timeout. The default value is 20
