Do I need to worry about Session warnings?

    I think my first note got missed.

    I started receiving the warnings listed below with the Give Plugin and I wanted to know if I need to fix these permanently 

    Warning: session_start(): open(/tmp/sess_496eee2b89b88af641088a1863091492, O_RDWR) failed: Permission denied (13) in /home/pcbry15/public_html/wp-content/plugins/give/includes/class-give-session.php on line 284

    From looking at other tickets I learned I could add

    define( 'GIVE_USE_PHP_SESSIONS' , false);

    to my wp-config.php file and they went away.

    Do I need these sessions for the plugin? I plan to purchase the recurring payment add-on.
    I didn’t know if these warnings are telling me that an issue might occur.

    How do I go about fixing these warnings if I need to?

    Thanks

    I no longer have this issue. I had to reinstall the staging site for another reason and the errors went away.

    Thanks for the update, and glad you got it worked out. Sessions are how we handle donor activity on the front-end, specifically when they are viewing their donation confirmation page or viewing their receipt from the email receipt link.

    Thanks!
