This plugin has been created to notify the user with message when they have been logged out due to session expiration. The process will redirect to Login Page configured and the message will be displayed. It works against two authentications, the Sitefinity authentication and the SmarterCommerce one. 

The process first validates that the session is not already expired, if the session is expired, the timeout is not validated but if the session is active, a request to the server is done to obtain the session time. If the user is logged into Sitefinity, the configuration is obtained from the following path: Administration -> Settings -> Advanced -> Security -> AuthCookieTimeout.

If the user is logged with SmarterCommerce, session time is obtained from the HttpContext.Current.Session, which is the configuration of the web.config for Sitefinity website. It is recommended that the configuration of the time out of Sitefinity is less than that of the web config. For more information about the configuration go to section “Sitefinity Authentication Expiration”

In case the Sitefinity timeout expires and the SmarterCommerce timeout is still valid while browsing the site, the plugin is validated against the configuration of the web config. 

Once the time count reaches its end, the status of the time expiration is validated, and it proceeds to redirect to the Login page where a query string parameter is added in the URL “expired=True” to validate whether or not it is necessary to perform the validation of the timeout.

Control that can be used only in internal pages.

If the plugin will use on external page, follow the steps in CMS - JQuery Plugins.docx
