Description
I installed the module (and Countdown Timer 6.x-2.18), enabled both modules, set user permission of using the module, and set its block to be displayed at right-side bar; however, nothing of the module showed up. I checked the codes of web page but could not find any text related the module. What wrong I might have made to cause the problem? Your kind help is appreciated. Thanks.

You need to go to 'admin/settings/autologout' to get to the auto logout settings page. The first think you see is the checkbox "Enable module". This must be checked for the module to work. I don't know exactly why the original author of Autologout programmed it this way, maybe just to force you to go to this page and set the rest of the settings.
Don't forget to look at the rest of the settings on this page and configure them to your liking.

Because the original client it was written for wanted a way for a class of user (lower admins) to be able to disable the module who don't have admin/build/modules permission (I think iirc).

...good to know, I never thought about it. A possible change would be to have that box checked by default. Assuming that if someone was enabling the module they wanted to have it activated.

Thanks jrglasgow. I checked "Enable module" checkbox, and checked other settings, everything seems okay, but nothing showed up.

Hi,
I had the same problem with jennifer. Does this module have minimal requirement to the hosting server?
Thanks.

It works after I create a new account.
It seems that for the administrator the autologout would not be effective.

Hosais,
On the top of 'admin/settings/autologout' it notifies you that user #1 will never br auto logged out.
#8
Is there any way to make it work with user id #1 ?
