set_cookie does not work - SirTom - 02-17-2017
I try to set a cookie for remember_me:
PHP Code:
$this->load->helper('cookie');
...
set_cookie(array(
'name' => $name,
'value' => $user,
'expire' => $expire
));
...
After the login I get only the Session.

Thanks for your help.

Your setting the cookie wrong, should be set like below:
PHP Code:
setcookie($cookie_name, $cookie_value, time() + (86400 * 30), "/"); // 86400 = 1 day

Thank you for your answer!
But setcookie is a php function and set_cookie is a ci function. Is the usage still the same?
RE: set_cookie does not work - InsiteFX - 02-18-2017
Yes it is still the same, but you can use an array in $name. It is just an Alias for CI .system/core/Input.php (SEE: set_cookie)
Also see ./system/helpers/cookie_helper.php
