changing cookie path for login

[scottcowan]

I'm building a site with whmcs in a subdir and another site in the root dir

 

whmcs uses the subdir as the cookie path for WHMCSUID,WHMCSPW so the root site can't access the cookies in php as far as I know.

 

is there an addon out there so I can change the cookie path, I noticed Kayako LoginShare does this but I can't see how to get it.

 

Thanks

If you want to be able to pass session data between subdomains you need to add the following to the php.ini file.

 

session.cookie_domain = .domain.com

 

Note the dot before your domain. This is required.

 

If you are unable to modify the the php.ini file you can add the following before the session.start() function on any page which creates the session cookie.

 

ini_set("session.cookie_domain", ".domain.com");
