The Online status timeout setting under the Members tab seems to be logging out all users - admin, editor etc after the 4 minute default. I've changed the setting but is there any way to apply that to only particular user groups or to turn it off completely?
I think the Online status timeout doesn't log out anyone. It is not for that reason.
You may have other session issues, not coming from wpForo (caching probably).
Pretty sure (99%) that this is not a caching issue.
I only use server-level cache, not WordPress caching plugins.
Issue did not appear until I loaded WPForo. Could be something else that happened at the same time. But the timing is suspicious and I remember having this problem before. Ideally I would like to be able to turn this off.
Anyone from gVectors care to wade in here?
As i posted above, this setting is not a session "timeout" for Wordpress or wpForo. Not related.
Also i can assure you that is not an issue with wpForo. I have seen that several times, when using LiteSpeed caching, that is why i mentioned "caching".
Anyways, gvectors will be able to help you more on this.
That's not related to wpForo, that is WordPress Function which auto logout's users after a period of time.
