Hi
 
I'd like to change the session timeout for the admin area only.
 
I followed this tutorial:
https://www.viart.com/the_administration_logs_us_out_quicker_than_wed_like.html
 
I created a new php.ini file and added in the following line:
session.gc_maxlifetime = 60
 
Saved it and uploaded it the the admin folder.
 
I chose for it to expire in 60 seconds so I could check it worked.....it doesn't.
 
Please can anyone shed any light on this?
 
Thanks in advance.
