SetCookie simply is not working

  • I cannot get a cookie to set properly through WordPress theme. I am putting the following code on the bottom of my functions.php page for my theme.

    function set_cookie() {
    if (isset($_GET[‘id’])) {
    $referrerID = $_GET[‘id’];
    setcookie(‘referrerid’, $referrerID,time()+ 3600 * 24, COOKIEPATH, COOKIE_DOMAIN, false);
    }
    }
    add_action( ‘init’, ‘set_cookie’);

    I even went as far as using JavaScript to alert if the script reached the function (which it did).

    Why are my cookies not being set?? (The code works locally – outside of WordPress that is).
