This module provides a site administrator the ability to log users out after a specified time of inactivity.
It is highly customizable and includes "site policies" by role to enforce logout.
Discussion Thread:
#925818: should the one session feature be removed from autologout?
Includes content submission detection after timeout to prevent users loosing work.
Optional integration with:
Javascript Timer (Autologout 6.x-2.5 and after).
Javascript Countdown Timer (Autologout 6.x-2.4 and previous).
6.x-4.x Branch
This is more or less a complete rewrite of this module. After a given timeout has passed, users are given a configurable session expired prompt. They can reset the timeout, logout, or ignore it in which case they'll be logged out after a the padding time has elapsed. This is all backed up by a server side logout if js is disable or bypassed. Full feature list. Initial development of this branch is sponsored by Intel.
