I want to regenerate my cookie's name after every successfull login ( I regenerate already my Session Id).

When I try to regenerate my cookie's name, joomla lost my session! ( in JSession class)

Do you know the best joomla's practise for regenerate the cookie's name?

It's my code, for get different cookie's name on every Session :

// It's on Joomla\Session\Session.php
    if (isset($options['name']))
    {
        $date = new DateTime();
        $timestamp =  $date->getTimestamp();
        session_name(md5($options['name'] . $timestamp));
    }

The instance of the JSession is a singleton, Is it for that I just add a dynamic timestamp when the instance is create, that generate a different name for every first instance of the JSession (No?) .

Thanks you!

  • You may store that generated cookie name in some variable and make JSession get the name from that variable..
