====== Configuration Setting: auth security timeout ======

To avoid performance problems on slow authentication backends, DokuWiki will cache authentication data. This setting specifies the time, in seconds, cached auth data is considered valid, set to 0 to recheck on every page view.

Note: this will **not** automatically log out users. It simply rechecks their authentication credentials in the background.

  * Type: Number
  * Default: 900
