Session time not working as expected

[tschettervictor]

Describe the bug I set the session key to a secure token, and set the session time to 999, but I keep getting logged out just about every day.

Expected behavior I expect that when I set the session time, it will allow me to be logged in indefinitely for the set amount of time without having to log in again.

Plz can u remember to share ur config.json! It's very important for us to replicate ur environment!

Yes I have spotted this too on the mobile ui but not the desktop ui

Will have a look when i get chance

Sorry, it was copied over and the config.json section wasn't present. Updated

sessionTime is in minutes, so 1440 is 24 hours, 10080 is 7 days

"sessionTime": {
  "type": "integer",
  "default": 60,
  "description": "Duration of a session cookie in minutes. Changing this affects how often the session needs to be automatically refreshed."
}

For some unknown reason I thought it was hours.
