Hello,

The cookie timeout is 45000 at my forum (12 hours) for users. But i want to specift a special cookie timeout for mods,admins and super mods for their security. I want them to log out automatically after 1 hour of inactivity.

Is there a hack for that or is it possible to do something like that??

This is the time in seconds that a user must remain inactive before any unread posts are marked read. This setting also controls how long a user will remain on Who's Online after their last activity.

Time-Out for Cookie : 45000

It is the default value for Vb paul?? Is it wrong??

Nope i am not mad

The default is 900 I believe (15 min), we use 2400 (40 min) which I think is a bit high myself.

45000 is way OTT, I've never heard of anyone with such a high value before.
