A [Flarum](http://flarum.org) extension. Prevents session timeouts during idle by pinging home at set intervals.

Ping intervals are determined by the session lifetime in Illuminate. In Flarum, this defaults to 2 hours. Pings are done at 4 points within that lifetime to increase the chances of a successful keep-alive.

This means that, by default with this extension, the forum will ping home every 30 minutes to keep your session alive.
