Sitecore 7 - logout session when browser window shuts down

in my Sitecore 6.2 Project :

  • open browser window and login to sitecore content editor
  • shut down browser window
  • open browser window again
  • I have been logged out. I need to login again

But, in my sitecore 7 project, after I shut the browser window and open it again, I dont need to login again. My session is still active.

With the 2 projects, I have the same configuration.

I have tried the Authentication.ClientSessionTimeout and Authentication.SessionTimeout Settings but it didnt help.

Does anyone know what I need to configure in Sitecore 7 so that shutting down browser window causes a logout?

Thanx

Solution

  • I have just tested this with Sitecore 7.0 (Initial Release) using IE9, Chrome (latest) and FireFox (latest).
    In all cases, I need to re-login after I completely close my browser.

    In what case does it not work for you? (what browser and Sitecore revision)
    Are you completely exiting your browser of just closing a tab?
    Mind that closing a tab does not end your session.
