    Does umbracoTimeOutInMinutes no longer work for the backoffice?

    I'm using a clean install of version 6.1.2 and have noticed that the user timeout in the backoffice is no longer working.  I get no warning message nor am I booted off.  Is anyone else experiencing this?  Is there a new configuration somewhere else that needs to be set to get this to work again?

    I think that setting doesn't work anymore since 4.7.1. See the release notes:

    "We've made the dreaded lock screen disabled by default by ensuring that Umbraco auto-renews login as long as the browser is open. The lock screen can be enabled via a new setting in umbracoSettings.config called /settings/security/keepUserLoggedIn which should be set to false"

    So there is an auto renew function to make sure you don't log out.

    Right, but I have keepUserLoggedIn set to false, and the timeout set to 20 minutes and it's not logging the user out. I'll try a clean install of the newest build tomorrow.

    Just checked with a clean 6.1.5 release, with keepUserLoggedIn set to false, and the CMS still fails to show a warning message and log out the user.  Dissapointing as it used to work back in the day.

    Hello,

    I have the same problem, I would want to log out the user automatically after some minutes of inactive status.

    I tried to set keepUserLoggedIn to false and umbracoTimeOutInMinutes to 1 (this one doesn't work anymore?), but the CMS doesn't log out the user.

    Thanks
