Enable Session Keepalive Cookie when editing products in Hikashop

-- HikaShop version -- : 6.0.0
-- Joomla version -- : 4.4.13
-- PHP version -- : 8.1.32

Hello,
A couple of times now I have found myself logged in, working on a hikashop product, only to learn that my session expired while I was working and all of my changes were lost.

More precisely, I'll be editing the product description at /index.php?option=com_hikashop&ctrl=product&task=edit&cid[]=2 only to click on the save button and be presented with the login screen, therefore losing all my changes.

I'd like to suggest that Hikashop implement some kind of keepalive method, so that the session be kept alive automatically when working in the backend, so this doesn't happen in future versions.

Thanks in advance,

Hi,

I'm sorry but I don't understand your point of view. Shouldn't it involve calling the Web Asset Manager and using behavior.keepalive?

For instance, Joomla core uses this code (in com_content/tmpl/article/edit.php) to keep the session alive when editing articles:

$wa->useScript('keepalive')
    ->useScript('form.validate')
    ->useScript('com_contenthistory.admin-history-versions');

My pleasure. Looking forward to future updates
