ISL and ACE are two completely different things (see Read Me help button info below) and work independently of each other.
Idle Session Logout (ISL) General Info:
Idle Session Logout (ISL) can be considered a “soft” setting vs ACE being a “hard” setting. ISL uses JavaScript Event Listeners to monitor Users activity for these ISL events: keyboard key is pressed, mouse button is pressed, mouse is moved, mouse wheel is rolled up or down, finger is placed on the touch surface/screen and finger already placed on the screen is moved across the screen.
Auth Cookie Expiration (ACE) General Info:
The WordPress Authentication Cookie Expiration (ACE) time can be considered a “hard” setting vs ISL being a “soft” setting. If you set the Cookie Expiration to 60 minutes then 60 consecutive minutes after a User has logged in, that user will be logged out automatically whether that User is idle/inactive or not. The WordPress Authentication Cookie Expiration (ACE) time is set when a User logs in. The default WordPress Authentication Cookie Expiration time is 2880 Minutes/2 Days and 20160 Minutes/14 Days if a User checks the Remember Me checkbox when they login. The WordPress Authentication Cookie Expiration time is set/reset each time a User logs in. So if a User logs out and then logs back into the site then the Cookie Expiration time for that User is set again to whatever Auth Cookie Expiration Time that you choose or the WordPress default Cookie Expiration time if you do not use or turn On ACE.
I don’t understand what this means > “Set the isl login to the page I wanted.” Please list all of your ISL settings.
Idle Session Logout Page URL:
When an idle/inactive User is logged out of your site they are redirected to the BPS Idle Session Logout Page URL by default. You can choose to redirect logged out users to any URL that you want to redirect them to by entering the URL in this text box. Example: If you enter the URL path to your WP Login page then user’s will be redirected to your WP Login page instead of the default BPS Idle Session Logout Page.
Idle Session Logout Page Login URL:
This option displays a clickable Login URL/link to your WP Login page. If your Login page URL is different than the default URL that you see displayed in the Idle Session Logout Page Login URL text box then change the URL to the URL for your site’s Login page. You can choose not to display a Login URL/link by entering “No” (without quotes) if you do not want a Login URL/link displayed.
