ABOUT

FrontendSession is a plugin for the open-source web publishing software called Dotclear.

Allow session on frontend.

REQUIREMENTS

Dotclear 2.36
PHP 8.1+
Dotclear admin permission for configuration

USAGE

First install FrontendSession, manually from a zip package or from Dotaddict repository. (See Dotclear's documentation to know how do this)

Once it's done you can manage FrontendSession option from blog preferences.

There is a template for public page. This template is adapted to default Dotclear's theme. If you want to create your own template for your theme,
copy file from FrontendSession/default-templates to your theme tpl path and adapt it.

This plugin manages sign in, sign up, sign out, and session on public pages, nothing more.
User must have FrontendSession permission on blog and the enabled status to sign in.
The registration form creates user with this permission and a pending status.
Features enabled by session must be done by other plugins.
Using session on Frontend reduces cache system to near zero.
You can use plugin TelegramNotifier to get notification on new registration
