    Default expected behavior?

    it seems that when the session times out using the jAlert/javascript, the camefrom parameter automatically gets reset to index.php.

    the camefrom parameter is one of the nicer "new" features (at least to me); and it would be nice if it was kept when the javascript alert takes over the screen after a session timeout.

    if this behavior is not expected i will do my own troubleshooting to determine where i went adrift...

    I haven't been able to find the conversation; however, when I brought up this operation was advised that everything was okay and no changes.

    The way "around" the issue is to refresh the page or use the uri in the browser instead of selecting the login/continue button.

    Of course there still is the occasional lack of application of the camefrom parameter. I still occasionally when last on the developers tool kit, session times out, reload and after login am plopped back in the admin main page rather than at the developers tool kit.

    Default Re: expected behavior?

    so, it is expected behavior. and thanks for the work-arounds.

    for those who do not want use the work-around, one can change the code in:

    YOUR_ADMIN/includes/keepalive_module.php

    as such:

    PHP Code:
    <?php
    // Read default timeout value from the site's configuration:
    $timeoutAfter ini_get('session.gc_maxlifetime');
    if ((int)
    $timeoutAfter 30$timeoutAfter 1440;

    //new line:
    $camefrom "'" basename($PHP_SELF) . (empty(zen_get_all_get_params()) ? '' '?' zen_get_all_get_params()) . "'";
    ?>

    //modified line later in code:

    'loginUrl': <?= $camefrom?>, //URL to send a customer to when they want to log back in
    best.
