Here they note:
There's a gotcha when it comes to the timespan string in the appsettings.json, if you want to specify 24 hours or above you must do so in the format: d.HH:MM:SS, for instance if you want 24 hours the string is "1.00:00:00"
Several people are having the same issues, and we all use Chrome. Will give Firefox a run and see if I notice any difference. I have been running without any sort of cookie/adblocker and I don't have any similar plugins, so shouldn't be an issue.
Was talking to someone on the discord channel with same issue. They had put in 23:59:00 but it was still timing out.
I'm on version 13.2 and tried the 1.00:00:00 format yesterday and it worked a treat - only using for development stuff, because it's annoying getting timed out switching between coding and doc type updates.
Just tried a test changing to 23:59:00 and it's been over an hour (on Chrome) without activity and still no timeout. Maybe fixed in newer release?
Umbraco 13 timeout setting being ignored?
We're on v13+ and are experiencing constant time outs. Like 20 seconds will pass and we get a session timeout. I've set the timeout as such:
But it's being completely ignored. Is this a bug or incorrectly configured? Even if a timeout isn't set the default should be 20 minutes, correct?
I saw there was a similar issue long ago with a version 9: https://github.com/umbraco/Umbraco-CMS/pull/12029

Hi Danny,
I did see that, however we've also tried putting it at 23h or lower, and it's still being ignored.
Hello Ras,
Does this happen in any browser? Do you have plugins on your browser that prevent cookies or block anything?
Do you use any custom configuration?
The default should be 20 minutes indeed: https://docs.umbraco.com/umbraco-cms/tutorials/editors-manual/tips-and-tricks/session-timeout

Same problem with Microsoft Edge

Are you sure its not that you (and other devs) are logging into the same backoffice account ?
U13 has a new security feature called AllowConcurrentLogins. Default is false.
