OpenID times out in WordPress?

[dsp76]

Pretty unexpected - while I was editing a page for a while, I was asked to reauthorize. Is there a timeout related to the session and is this not refreshed with each action?

Lost my editing and needed to restart.
Was it just a random error?

I've ran into this as well. I thought it's related to Wordfence & WF login security and didn't look into it further. It's been like this way before the openid additions, even for my local wp user accounts.

I can reproduce this. @vladimir-d please investigate.

@humptydumpty I don't use WordFence.

Additional Error related to that: If you are logged into WordPress, some pages on your site force you to login again, although you are already logged in. And even if its a public page.

Might be related to the WordPress bar that shows when logged in (but openID timed out). No issue though for public visitors.

@dsp76 this should be fixed now with the latest update.
