Biscotti

Biscotti makes your user's login cookie a little bit longer.

<p>This plugin will mimic a keep-alive ping by utilizing jQuery to perform an ajax request to the current page, which will update<br />
the session token tied to PilotPress and or any other system attached using PHP built in sessions. Session Slap will also provide<br />
a settings interface to allow admins to configure details relating to interval amount (which is defauled to 5 minutes less than the<br />
session.maxlifetime set in php.ini).</p>
<p>A few notes about the sections above:</p>
<ul>
<li>Configuration options are available in the Settings -> Session Slap menu.</li>
<li>Updates built in PHP sessions only.</li>
<li>Attempts to access session.maxlifetime ini settings, but will default to 24 minutes if not available.</li>
</ul>


Session Slap

Session Slap mimics a keepalive ping by making an AJAX request to the current page to refresh active session timestamp.
