Getting the customer id if session is not set

Sorry try this

PHP Code:

static protected $customerId = 0; 


Should not matter but then.

By all means it should be working are you sure that you are returning the customer id?

I gave it another go still not work was all way returning 0

Here is what I have done so far. 

The only thing that is stopping me is I cannot get the customer id for readAutologin because session expired. I have all ways been told not to hide customer id or user id in cookies only tokens. So I can not think of any other way to get id.

There's only one rule - please don't tell anyone to go and read the manual.  Sometimes the manual just SUCKS!
