How can I maintain the ‘connected = true’ status when switching to another site?
Hi Min! Thanks for reaching out. I can help with your question about maintaining the ‘connected = true’ status when switching between websites in your Chrome extension. Here’s what I gathered:
- SDK Details: Plug n Play
- Issue: Disconnecting when switching to a different website.
To address your issue, maintaining the connection status usually requires that your extension handles the session consistently across different sites. Here are some suggestions:
-
Check Session Persistence: Ensure that your authentication tokens or session data are stored persistently and can be accessed across different pages. You might consider using Chrome’s storage API.
-
Use Event Listeners: Implement event listeners to manage connection status changes and handle reconnections seamlessly.
If you’re still experiencing issues, could you please share the following for better assistance?
- SDK Version Number
- Platform (if applicable)
- Code Snippets related to the Web3Auth initialization and login process

I have set the session time to 7 days, which is the maximum limit for free usage. I checked the returned idToken and confirmed that the actual session time is indeed 7 days from the moment I chose to sign in.
For example, I am on X (Twitter) and logged in with X using my extension, and then I switch to another website, but the login status is lost; at this point, connected = false. My goal is to maintain the login status when I switch back and forth between different websites.
