The 'Inactive Logout' plugin provides a straightforward solution to a common security issue faced by many website owners. Once installed and activated, the plugin gives administrators the ability to set an idle time limit, after which inactive users are automatically logged out. This idle time limit can be easily customized to meet the specific needs of each website.

One of the key features of this plugin is its flexibility in determining what constitutes activity. It provides three options for activity detection – mouse movements, keyboard strokes, or both. This allows administrators to choose the method that best suits their website's user interaction patterns. For instance, if the website primarily relies on mouse-based navigation, administrators can select the mouse movements option to detect activity accurately.

The plugin also offers the option to redirect logged out users to a specific page, such as the login page or a custom landing page. This ensures that users are seamlessly redirected to a secure location without being perplexed by unexpected logouts.

Additionally, the 'Inactive Logout' plugin provides a warning system to users as their idle time approaches the set limit. This warning can be displayed in various ways, such as a pop-up notification, an alert message, or a countdown timer on the screen. This feature helps users stay informed and actively engaged to avoid being logged out unwillingly.

To further enhance security, the 'Inactive Logout' plugin includes an IP whitelist feature. This feature allows administrators to specify certain IP addresses or IP range from which users will not be logged out, regardless of their activity. It can be particularly useful for website owners who want to grant access to specific trusted users or locations while still enforcing idle time limits for others.

In terms of compatibility, the 'Inactive Logout' plugin is built to work seamlessly with most WordPress themes and plugins. It does not interfere with the core functionality of the website or cause conflicts with other installed plugins. The plugin is actively maintained and regularly updated to ensure compatibility with the latest versions of WordPress and to address any potential security vulnerabilities.
