Documentation On Session Time Limit

[Ennymama]

Certain webpages feature time limits that give users a set amount of time to engage with the content. For security reasons, websites containing forms and those requiring a login, for instance, typically have time restrictions. It's critical that when a time limit is in place, the user is given the opportunity to extend the time allotted to finish their task and receives a proper time response notification. The following rules should be adhered to in order to guarantee timely responses:

Users should receive a time out notification when their session is about to expire.
When a user receives a time-out notification, they should move their focus to the dialogue box containing the time-out notification.

A reasonable amount of time should be allowed to users before the time-out signals the end of a session. For instance, the user is not given enough time to comprehend and respond to a time-out notification if it appears and the page closes shortly after, signalling that the session is about to expire.

After receiving a time-out notification, if a user decides to continue, their focus should revert to the part of the page where the timed response message was originally displayed.

Time extension: It should be possible for users to change and extend the time limit settings.

@Ennymama 👋 I don’t totally understand what your issue is about? This repository is about documentation for Wagtail, I’m not sure whether your issue is about another project altogether or just the wrong repository, or what you are suggesting.

Sorry @thibaudcolas ....my bad...this is a documentation for Session Time Limit on Wagtail's website as identified here as an accessibility feature needing documentation:

Thanks. Wagtail has no time-out notifications as you describe so this was very confusing. We already have issue #365 to describe how the session timeout works, so I’ll keep this closed.
