Inactivity Auto Sign Out Plugin
This plugin automatically logs a user out after a certain period of time of inactivity.
It creates new meta data for each WP user and checks that the user hasn’t been inactive for too long.
If the user has been inactive for too long, then the user is automatically logged out and redirected to a URL of your choice.
It tracks the users activity in both the main site and admin area.
You can set the maximum inactivity time and redirect URL by changing the defined constants in the plugin’s PHP page – no admin menus are available yet see FAQs.
It’s only a single PHP page, so it’s easy to alter to work however you’d like it to work.
It works with BuddyPress too.
Let me know if you find a better way of doing this, and I’ll update the plugin.
Installation Bug
[FIXED!] Currently, when you activate the plugin, you are automatically logged out!

The plugin package installer can be downloaded from the WP2E project tab called “code”.

2 – After downloading the zip archive install the plugin package installer in you local environment and activate the script from the plugin list.
3 – Under the section “Plugins” of the admin dashboard you should see a new “Dependencies & Licenses” link. Follow the instructions from this panel to finalize the installation of the missing dependencies.
