Enhancements For Session Management in Both User And Admin Portal #2432

Open JordanCampbell1 opened 1 month ago

JordanCampbell1 commented 1 month ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The lack of admin-configurable session timeouts, absence of pre-timeout warnings, and inadequate logout messaging disrupt user experience and can lead to frustration among users.

Describe the solution you'd like Solution focuses on overcoming these challenges by introducing configurable session timeouts, warning notifications before session expiry, and seamless redirection to the login screen upon logout

Describe alternatives you've considered n/a

Approach to be followed (optional) The project involves researching session management solutions and planning the implementation strategy, followed by creating detailed design documents and UI mockups, and reviewing these with stakeholders. Configuration settings will be developed in the Talawa-Admin Portal and backend logic will be implemented in Talawa-API. Pre-timeout notifications will be developed in Talawa Admin, and logout messaging will be enhanced. Testing will include writing and executing test cases, conducting peer reviews, and integrating feedback. Documentation will be updated and new guides will be written and approved. User feedback will be gathered, bugs identified, and necessary improvements made to finalize features. Finally, features will be deployed to production, followed by final testing to ensure smooth operation.

But, do you think it's needed? It is fine even though they are not getting logout on inactivity.

It would be an issue if someone like an admin left their computer open and they are still logged in, so the auto logout would resolve that issue
