This module was originally written in response to Automated Logout's limitations when compared to a set of particular requirements. For example:
- Supports and maintains synchronization across multiple tabs even when tabs are inactive.
- Supports simpleSAMLphp Authorization logout directly.
- Displays a warning on the tab itself upon timeout.
- Adds query string to the logout target allowing for greater customization of theme templates for logout messaging.
Automated Logout was used against the original specification, but did not meet the customer's requirements. We tried extensive patching and customization and only came close but no cigar. There was just too many issue to make it practical. So this module was created. And since it was created, it is shared with the community.
I was running into an issue using #6 on 1.4 (using alternative logout) along with patch 3214958-26 to deal with mutable tabs. With this applied, all tabs would trigger the popup without any acknowledgement of the active tab.
Instead of using #6, I fixed this with the following:
if (ajax.ajaxing) {
if (theDialog == undefined) {
return false;
}
}
No idea if this is really workable going forward, but the testing today seems to make me think this just might hold up in our environment.
I also ran into trouble with the April 12th build of dev using this patch with the modal popping up in an unfocused tab.
The 8.x-1.8 release's info file still sets core_version_requirement: ^8.8 || ^9
A new release may be in order?

Wondering what the Drupal 10 version is. Is there a timeline to meet the deprecation of Drupal 9 and if so what are the plans to make the module Drupal 10 compatible. Thanks.
