#976 Allow config to never logout

[Birchy]

I edit continously, and when I come back from a short or long abense, I have to re-login. Even though my browser (sometimes) has the login info prefilled, the current gedcom has reverted back to the default gedcom, and I often have to spend several minutes restoring up to a dozen tabbed windows to the correct gedcom.

PLEASE allow me to override the auto logout function!
Changing the seconds in the config has never worked for me...

Sometimes I can pause for almost an before I'm kicked out, sometimes it will kick me out when I'm in the middle of editing.

These comments suggest a server or other setup problem. Perhaps that should be fixed before you change PGV? I can only speak from experince, but I'm only looged out at the end of the time set in config. I've never been logged out if still active.

As well as the setting in PGV, you can also be logged off (by the server) after the number of seconds specified by session.gc_maxlifetime (see your phpinfo page).

The default value for this is 1440 seconds (about 20 minutes).

Your server may or may not allow you to override this value.
