Admin Keepalive Timer [Support Thread]

Guessing that your editor plugin is trying to reload jquery but it's already loaded by the keepalive script.

Any idea how I can fix this?

Apologies for the delay in replying. I've submitted a new version which "plays better with others", such as TinyMCE which also loads jQuery on the page. This update will skip reloading jquery if it's already loaded.

FYI: using Zen Cart 1.5.1

I work with Firefox for admin purposes only.

It works perfectly in Firefox (18.0.1). I only wish it would warn you of the session ending with a popup window. If you are using many tabs in your browser or have many browser windows open, and the admin window is not active, you will miss the warning.

As for IE9.0.12, it warns you with the green screen appearing below the footer section of the admin window. ( picture attached). After 15 minutes, It warns you "Sorry, you have logged out due to inactivity". Once you click continue, you can go back in and continue working in admin, or in another-words the admin session remains active!


In Chrome, nothing happens the warning doesn't even appear.

I have not tried Opera yet.

Works great in all pages except the pages that has spiffyCalendar. The timer dialog or the timeout dialog does not, instead the input box of the calendar and the blue dropdown button shows in the left top corner without any header display. This is happening on all the following browsers, Chrome, Firefox, Safari and IE.

Appreciate if you can provide a fix.

We are using Zen 1.5.1 and Keepalive Timer-beta0.2.

Hello DrByte,

I love your app. Especially the feature that if your session expires, you have an option to close and copy your work. However, unlike Kevin, when the timer pops up, I would prefer, if when you are viewing a different tab, that it doesn't scroll to the admin page and make it as the active page. Too many times, I have been in the middle of reviewing something with a client or typing something into a browser page, then suddenly my tabs shift/scroll to the admin page, I click, then have to click back on the tab that I was working on. Is there a change I can implement into the code that will either (a) have only the pop up box pop into view on top of my current active page, or (b) have the pop up box pop up on the admin page without it scrolling and making my admin page active? If either of these could be easily implemented by me, not only would it be acceptable, but awesome. If b is the easiest option, I would rather have to log back in than to have my pages keep scrolling.

Thank You,

Sharon

Sharon,
I'm not sure I've seen that behavior. Which browser/version are you using with this? And what version of Windows/Mac/Linux are you using on your computer?

Hello DrByte,

I am using FireFox 18.0.2 and WindowsXP Pro Service Pack 3.
