I have noticed that sessions opened when using connection via CB connect were much less shorter than using standard joomla or CB logins.
Is this normal ?
Is CB Connect respecting the config setting regarding sessions lenght or is there another setting somewhere else ?
On config settings we have
method : PHP
lenght : 1440
shared : yes

CB Connect uses the false password login API to login a user without their password. The session however should've already existed and be created by Joomla upon accessing the site. I'm not aware of a way to create a Joomla session with a lifetime other than that configured globally as even if you send the option to their create session function it's overridden.

I meant that CB Connect sessions were way shorter than CB Login sessions and I cannot figure why.
The settings are 1440, that's respected with CB login, but drops to only one or two hours with CB connect.
I don't see how CB Connect could even do that. As mentioned above you can't override the session lifetime of Joomla sessions. Their API won't even allow for that. CB Connect doesn't have its own sessions. How are you observing this? Checking the cookie lifetime?

I was wondering whether there could be a cookie problem with the remember me plugin ?
Seems like when session is opened with CB connect, the cookie length is not respected while using the standard CB login works very well
I believe the issue maybe with API logins that login without a password, which would be in core CB and impact any API based logins. Have added a bug ticket to take a look and see what we could be missing.
