Adds <code>$_SESSION</code> functionality to WordPress, leveraging the database where needed to power multi-server installations.

also be stored in memory for rapid use within WordPress.
Session data stored in the database can be encrypted at rest for better security.

Very useful and reliable

Good code quality, very useful when you need the joy of sessions :) Keep it up.
