On session end

Hi all,

Is there a way to refresh the page on session end so that the user is logged out?

Also, how can I log users out when their account is inactive? I don't want the website logging people out just because their session has come to the end. Otherwise, can I show a message asking if users would like to extend their current session? Like something the banks do to secure their website...

Thanks.

Are you talking about Perch users, or site members using the Members app here?

I think you'd probably need to do that with JavaScript. When the page loads, call a timeout function set to the number of seconds until the end of the session, and when the function runs, check that the session hasn't been refreshed and then redirect or what have you.
