Setting a cookie

[Dad.]

Hey all,

Was wondering how to set a cookie using (I'm assuming there is a built-in function) XenForo, as I was hoping to be able to do it without loading the jQuery cookie plugin. Could someone provide a basic example of doing this (I'm not the best javascript developer in the world, I'm not quite a master yet ).

Thanks!

How are you wanting to do it? It could be done via PHP:

XenForo_Helper_Cookie::setCookie('cookieName', cookieinfo, timeout);
XenForo_Helper_Cookie::deleteCookie('cookieName');

Hey there, I want to do with javascript. I can do it the long way or I can import jQuery cookie plugin, but figured there was a way to do it with XenForo and just thought I'd found out how

Ah, sorry. Take a peak at xenforo.js, you could end up just using:

<script>
    jQuery.setCookie('name', 'value');
</script>

Ah thanks a lot, $.setCookie() and $.getCookie() , I couldn't find it until I beautified the xenforo.js file, thanks a lot! (think my find function was buggy)
