    Default Increase 'Admin Session Time Out' ?

    I have checked
    http://www.zen-cart.com/wiki/index.p...dmin_-_Catalog
    and /includes/functions/sessions.php

    I am not sure if I change one of the variable 900 to 4000 its going to work. its not of crucial importance.

    Code:
    Line #16 : if (!$SESS_LIFE = (SESSION_TIMEOUT_ADMIN + 900)) { 
    
    Line #17 : $SESS_LIFE = (SESSION_TIMEOUT_ADMIN + 900); 
    
    
    Line #97 : @ini_set('session.gc_maxlifetime', (SESSION_TIMEOUT_ADMIN < 900 ? (SESSION_TIMEOUT_ADMIN + 900) : SESSION_TIMEOUT_ADMIN));

    To be in PCI compliance DO NOT change these admin timeout settings.

    To increase your login time use:

    Works great!

    It should be up to the user to decide whether to be in PCI compliance or not, not zencart . Not all sites using zencart need to be in compliance anyway. There should be a way to modify this in the settings, but since there isn't, which file would need modified?

    How do you set the timer in admin? where is the setting? I am using 1.5.3

    "INSTALLATION IS SIMPLE: 1. Unzip and upload the files. 2. Make a small addition to one existing file. See the enclosed Instructions.txt file." >> there is no text file!
