 * Hi there,
 * I had session expire set to a very long expiration (months). This had been working
   as expected.
 * We have decided to set a shorter session expiration 3 weeks, but when I try and
   change my number from a large one to 30240, I get the message, “Value must be
   less than or equal to 500.”
 * Has these been introduced via an update? Does the Pro version allow you to add
   a something beyond 500 minutes which seems strangely short?
 * If I delete the session expire so it shows the faded 10, does it default to the
   WordPress defaults or is it 10 minutes?

 * Hey, [@naresh11381](https://wordpress.org/support/users/naresh11381/)
 * Thanks for highlighting this, it’s a helpful use case.
 * We’re reviewing the current limit and considering increasing it to better align
   with WordPress defaults and real-world usage (like multi-week sessions).
 * Just to confirm, would a range of a few weeks to a month (e.g., around 30 days),
   best?
 * Appreciate your input!

 * Hey, [@naresh11381](https://wordpress.org/support/users/naresh11381/)
 * We’ve sent the release `v6.2.3`. In which we updated the maximum value of the
   session expiration field from 500 to 43,200 minutes (30 days) and added a filter`
   loginpress_session_expiration_max` to modify it. Here you go for the [changelog](https://loginpress.pro/changelog/).
 * Thank you again for reporting the issue.
