ExpressionEngine plugin to set and get cookies.
Set a cookie:
{exp:cookie:set name="chocolate" value="chip" seconds="86400"}
The "seconds" parameter is optional, defaulting to "0":
{exp:cookie:set name="chocolate" value="i am a session cookie"}
And retrieve it in one gulp:
What a delicious {exp:cookie:get name="chocolate"}!
Or savour it, if you prefer:
{exp:cookie:get_here name="peanut_butter"}
The value of the exp_peanut_butter cookie is: {peanut_butter}
{/exp:cookie:get_here}
The name parameter is sans the EE cookie prefix -- by default exp_.
You can ascertain the effective EE cookie prefix by viewing the output of the following tag:
{exp:cookie:prefix}
By default the name of the interpolated variable is the same as that supplied to the name parameter.
If you'd prefer something different then specify a variable paramter.
{exp:cookie:get_here name="username" variable="cookie"}
Hello {username}, have a {cookie}!
{/exp:cookie:get_here}
Delete a cookie:
{exp:cookie:delete name='chocolate'}
