How to update cookie Expiry for GUEST_LANGUAGE_ID and COOKIE_SUPPORT cookie
Junior Member Posts: 47 Join Date: 4/5/12 Recent Posts

Hi,

As part of our new cookie policy implementation, we should follow FRENCH LAW and not to store cookies more than 6 months.

I could implement this for Google nalytics and other custom cookies

But when coming to liferay generated cookies  GUEST_LANGUAGE_ID and COOKIE_SUPPORT these are set to 1 year and not able to update them.

Kindly let me know if there is any way to update.

I already tried below properties, but i donw see that met my requirement

cookie.http.only.names.excludes=

company.security.auto.login.max.age=15552000

 

Thank you,

Bhargavi

These two cookies are marked HttpOnly

I also tried to Update using document.cookie JS but, it is creating new cookie, Instead of updating original

Based on the only place where I found the Language Cookie to be set, and the painfully hardcoded definition of MAX_AGE, your best bet is if you can introduce a filter that intercepts the cookie being set, and changes its max age. Or override LanguageImpl, but that sounds less tempting than the filter.

On a positive note: Both cookies are not suspect for any profiling/tracing and absolutely non-personalized. But I don't know the details about the french law and what exactly it demands.
