Incorrect forms authentication timeout

Question

I want to make "remember time" on a site something aroun one week. In default mvc 3 application I set this changes:

<forms loginUrl="~/Account/LogOn" timeout="10880" slidingExpiration="true" />

But, it is not enought. After half an hour site forget me. What could be wrong?

Did you set propert timeout for the forms authentication ticket and also the isPersistent parameter should be set as true.

FormsAuthenticationTicket tkt = new FormsAuthenticationTicket
(
   1,                 // version
   username,          // user name
   DateTime.Now,      // issue date
   expiration,        // this should also be set to 10880
   rememberMeChecked, // this should be true
   null,              // additional data
   "/"                // cookie path
);
