Session cookie making site slow and service unavailable

  • The plugin is using a PHP Session cookie, which is breaking my server side caching and leading to much longer than expected load times

    Hi.

    It shouldn’t break your server-side caching if properly configured. PHP Sessions are being used for quite some time, so there are mechanisms how to handle caching as well.

    But you got a point. I have browsed the code which is using sessions and figured those could be avoided. It is legacy code, it was working fine for years, therefore there was no reason to touch it. Until now, I guess ??

    I have created a ticket in our inner system to handle this matter.

    Hi @danichaves74 .

    We have removed PHP sessions from the plugin. It’s not yet released, but you can download testing version from our website and see if it’s working fine on your server.
