PHP - Destroy session if not any action in 10 minutes

Question

Is there any option to destroy a session if user does not perform any action in 10 minutes?

Answer 1

Try setting the session timeout to 10 minutes.

ini_set('session.gc_maxlifetime',10);

Answer 2

session_start();

// 10 mins in seconds
$inactive = 600; 

$session_life = time() - $_SESSION['timeout'];

if($session_life > $inactive) {
   session_destroy();
   header("Location: logoutpage.php");
}

$_SESSION['timeout']=time();
