Answer 1

A simple trick is to define the $_SESSION array as a global variable. For that, edit the core.php file in the extension folder by adding this function :

public function getGlobals() {
    return array(
        'session'   => $_SESSION,
    ) ;
}

Then, you'll be able to acces any session variable as :

{{ session.username }}

if you want to access to

$_SESSION['username']
