What is Session Data

A session is simply an array containing the following information:

The user’s unique Session ID (this is a statistically random string with very strong entropy, hashed with MD5 for portability, and regenerated (by default) every five minutes)
The user’s IP Address
The user’s User Agent data (the first 120 characters of the browser data string)
The “last activity” time stamp.
And custom data you defined.

Prototype:

[array]
(
     'session_id'     => fcb3954dc10e6c35f7515db18c769c90,
     'ip_address'    => '176.42.245.72', 
     'user_agent'    => 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) ... ',
     'last_activity'   => 1352838770
)

Why you need this Plugin?

Because WordPress is a totally stateless application and does NOT use sessions to hold data. This means that if you want to use sessions in your plugin or your custom theme, you may need to enable sessions. So, Sessions Plugin permits you use PHP sessions in your WordPress projects.

Simply starting a session isn’t enough?

It is NOT good enough for both security and managing your session data. The better way of storing sensitive data is to put it in a database in an encrypted format, so it makes the data highly secure and impervious to being read or altered by someone. So, this plugin has all these features.

Quick Start

For Theme Developers:

This is the easiest way to use this plugin:

Just activate the Session Plugin from administration panel
And start to use $session object anywhere in your theme
(e.g. $session->userdata('session_id');

For Plugin Developers:

You will want to adapt the WP Sessions to your plugin. So you need to use Standalone Version which comes with package you bought. It is good start and almost everything is ready there to adapt.
