Parent Window

Hello, is it possible to get the session from the host or parent window. I am trying to connect the helper chat to the host store to see if the current chatter is logged into the store. Maybe through the LHC_API string from the embed, thanks in advance.

I’m not sure what exactly you are asking? But perhaps this might help

Re: Parent Window

I am trying to,
HOST SITE - sets when user logins in
$_SESSION['user_id'] = '13467';

LIVE HELPER CHAT - is chatting user logged into store
echo $_SESSION['user_id']

And then I will put in extension that checks if logged in, thanks

I was thinking
LHC_API.args = {mode:'widget',lhc_base_url:'',user_id:$userID}  sort of thing.

Re: Parent Window

Would I be you, I would just pass encrypted variable and in extension use it directly from chat object. Widget does not have php sessions and is stateless, so sessions won’t work.
