Nevermind, I’ve figured it out: function init() { $user = wp_get_current_user(); if (!$user instanceof WP_User) return; $year = time() + 60 * 60 * 24 * 30 * 12; $auth = md5(join(‘_’, array($user->ID, “my secret”))); setcookie(‘visitor_id’, $user->ID, $year, “https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/”); setcookie(‘visitor_auth’, $auth, $year, “https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/”); } add_action(‘init’, ‘init’);
Generally functions hooked with init action will be available on every page and posts with in WordPress. it will immediately fire upon WP load. so maybe something like below will work. function ao_check_cookie() { //Your code here. } add_action( ‘init’, ‘ao_check_cookie’ );
Your mistake is the WP_CONTENT_URL’s postfix. You should set the definitions in the following manner: define(“COOKIE_DOMAIN”, “www.artisanplombier-pascher.com”); define(“WP_CONTENT_URL”, “https://static.artisanplombier-pascher.com”); Then, you should configure the static. subdomain’s path in your server’s configuration file or your hosting’s control panel.

It errors because class method is not a function. It’s not uniquely identified by its name alone. You need to provide instance of the object (or name of the class for static methods). In your context it would be: add_action( ‘init’, [ $this, ‘newsletterSuscriber’ ] );
WordPress theme should load header.php file for eacfront-endnd request, so the best place to add your custom code is in the header.php on the very top, before any HTML.

Instead of going to the [domain]/wp-admin to login, try going to [domain]/wp-login.php instead. The redirect seems to work correctly this way. … Read more
