HHH Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 Are there any major drawbacks to extending the session timeout in the portal? The wiki is somewhat lacking on the subject. https://wiki.hornbill.com/index.php/Portal_Accounts 1
Deen Posted April 12, 2019 Posted April 12, 2019 @HHH You may find that even with this extended the session will still be disconnected due to something else in the chain such as the browser itself. Are you seeing excessive timeouts in the portal?
Deen Posted April 12, 2019 Posted April 12, 2019 I'll also look into getting that wiki section filled out...
HHH Posted April 15, 2019 Author Posted April 15, 2019 Thanks @Deen Yes, this mainly occurs for our customers and staff in Australia and New Zealand
sprasad Posted May 9, 2019 Posted May 9, 2019 @Deen Is there an update on this issue please? The most latest customer complaint I have had is as follows:Please can the time allowed to be in the portal be extended to enable disturbances to be taken into account when completing requests? It is very frustrating when being timed out just as I finish submitting my request and it doesn’t save what has been input!!
Deen Posted May 13, 2019 Posted May 13, 2019 @sprasad you might want to look at the following advanced system setting and check what its currently set at:
Martyn Houghton Posted May 14, 2019 Posted May 14, 2019 @Deen Out setting is the default 900 seconds, 15 mins. Just to confirm this applies to the portals, not just the User Live app? Cheers Martyn
Deen Posted May 30, 2019 Posted May 30, 2019 @Martyn Houghton sorry about the late reply, there is actually a different timeout setting specific to the portal that can be found under: Home > System > Manage Portals > Portal Accounts > customer Under the options section.
Deen Posted May 30, 2019 Posted May 30, 2019 @sprasad see my update above on how to extend the timeout for the Customer portal.
