How can the config file be properly utilized in phpMyAdmin to adjust the session timeout?

To adjust the session timeout in phpMyAdmin, you can modify the config file by setting the session.gc_maxlifetime value to the desired timeout duration in seconds. This will control how long a session can remain active before expiring due to inactivity. By adjusting this value in the config file, you can customize the session timeout according to your needs.

// Set session timeout to 1 hour (3600 seconds)
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['LoginCookieValidity'] = 3600;
