Extend Logout Time Session

Hello,

Could you please advise what exactly code should I insert in functions.php in order for extending user’s session timeout?

I’ve tried some codes before like this one:

function chuck_extend_admins_login_session( $expiration, $user_id, $remember ) {
if ( $remember && user_can( $user_id, ‘manage_options’ ) ) {
$expiration = 7776000; // 90 days in seconds
}
return $expiration;
}
add_filter( ‘auth_cookie_expiration’,’chuck_extend_admins_login_session’, 10, 3 );

However this didn’t work – also some other untested plugins with wp 4.9 version didn’t work either.

I’m looking for a solution referring to every registered user (not only admin) to extend the logout session.

Your input is much appreciated.

Kind regards,
George
