<p>Adds <code>$_SESSION</code> functionality to WordPress, leveraging the database where needed to power multi-server installations.</p>
<p>Every visitor, logged in or not, will be issued a session. Session data will be stored in the WordPress database by default<br />
to deal with load balancing issues if multiple application servers are being used. In addition, the session collection will<br />
also be stored <em>in memory</em> for rapid use within WordPress.</p>
<p>Session data stored in the database can be encrypted at rest for better security.</p>


WP Session Manager

Amazing!

good

I am using WP Session Manager in several projects since some years. Initially, I was looking for a more reliable session management compared to standard PHP sessions – and found it in WP Session Manager. Thanks for this great plugin!

Very useful and reliable

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

Good job
