Two separate sessions for frontend and backend in Adcanced template

Yii 2.0 General Discussions

Thanks for this wiki. By this the enableAutoLogin identification cookie is separate for frontend and backend as _backendUser and _frontendUser, which is useful.

Still, when either frontend or backend is signed in and we open the other, it shows automatically signed in because the session cookie is same, PHPSESSID.

So we are unable to maintain separate sessions. Do we have any method to maintain separate sessions for frontend and backend? Or to avoid user sign in for the frontend?

Yes. Session name is customizable via session component config.

Thanks, I should have looked at the 55 line commented explanation of properties of yii/web/session.

Work done!
