How to use session_start in Wordpress?

Question

I\'m creating a bilingual site and have decided to use session_start to determine the language of the page using the following:

session_start();         


        

Answer 1

I found an interesting article by Peter here. I'm using the following code in my functions.php:

add_action('init', 'myStartSession', 1);
add_action('wp_logout', 'myEndSession');
add_action('wp_login', 'myEndSession');

function myStartSession() {
    if(!session_id()) {
        session_start();
    }
}

function myEndSession() {
    session_destroy ();
}

This destroys old session when user logs out then in again with different account.
