Web pages really don’t have any memory. Cookies tell the server which pages to display to the user so that the user does not have to remember or start navigating the site again. Cookies act as a kind of “tag” within the website.

There are several external services that store limited cookies for the user. These cookies are not set by this website, but some are used for the normal functioning of certain features that make it easier for users to access content.
WORDPRESS COOKIES
35% of the web uses WordPress, and it’s only increasing by the day. It is a simple website system that allows anyone to create their own website. Like any web management system, WordPress also sets cookies. Does not use sessions by default; instead, it uses cookies to achieve the same behavior.
About WordPress cookies and why they are used:
There are two types of cookies set by WordPress.
User Cookies – These are “strictly necessary” cookies as WordPress will not be able to function without it. They are also session cookies that expire after the user logs out or leaves the site.
Comment cookies – These are not “strictly necessary” cookies and are set when users leave a comment on a post. They can also be classified as persistent cookies.
WordPress cookie for users
To check cookies set by WordPress, deactivate all plugins on the site. This is because other plugins can also install cookies on a WordPress website. Or you can check with a fresh installation of WordPress.
Without plugins installed, WordPress sets the following cookies:
wordpress_ [hash]
wordpress_logged_in_ [hash]
wordpress_test_cookie
wp-settings-{time} – [UID]
These are cookies that are activated in the administrative area of the website.
WordPress uses cookie wordpress_[hash] to store login authentication information. Authentication details include username and double hash copy of password. However, the use of cookies is limited to the administration console area, supporting the dashboard of the website.
WordPress_logged_in_[hash] the cookie is used to mark the time you are logged in and who you are. This cookie is stored on the front end of the website as well as during login.
Here[hash] represents a value that is obtained by applying a certain mathematical formula applied to the username and password. This is to guarantee that the input values are secure, and no one can access that data using cookies because it is difficult to “unhash” the timed data.
Wp-cookie settings-{time} –[UID] are used to customize the display of your admin interface and website interface. The value represented by[UID] is the individual user ID of the user assigned to them in the user database table.
WordPress also sets a cookie called wordpress_test_cookie to check whether cookies are enabled in the browser to provide users with an appropriate user experience. This cookie is used on the front end, even if you are not logged in.
In addition to them, WordPress also uses:
wp-saving-post : Allows admins to restore data for the post currently being edited if there is a saved version.
wporg_logged_ in , wporg_sec : Checks if the current visitor is a logged in WordPress user. The duration of this cookie is 14 days if the user has agreed to the website remembering the login credentials. Otherwise, it acts as a session cookie.
WordPress comments cookie
WordPress also places cookies on the devices of those who comment on the site. These cookies are used to remember the user so that values are automatically filled in the appropriate fields. The user does not have to enter his details every time he wants to leave a comment. Below are the cookies for commenters.
comment_author_ [hash]
comment_author_email_ [hash]
comment_author_url_ [hash]
Cookie cookie comment_author_[hash] the cookie remembers the value entered in the name field of the comment form.
Cookie comment_author_email_[hash] remembers the value entered in the email field of the comment form.
Cookie comment_author_url_[hash] remembers the value entered in the comment form’s URL field.
Cookies set for comments have a permanent nature and remain in the system for 347 days. These are only activated if visitors check the checkbox to save these details.
