Cookie title – WordPress Cookies

Abbreviation – wp-settings-{time}-[UID], wordpress_test_cookie, wordpress_logged_in_[hash], wordpress_[hash]

Purpose – These are the cookies that activate in the WordPress admin area of the website. They do not affect a viewers visit to the website and are purely for adaption to a users preference of how WordPress works.

The following cookies are activated in the admin area (WordPress) of the website.

WordPress uses the cookie wordpress_[hash] to store the authentication details on login. The authentication details include the username and double hashed copy of the password. However, this usage of the cookie is limited to the admin console area, the backend dashboard of the website.

The cookie wordpress_logged_in_[hash] is used to indicate when you are logged in, and who you are. This cookie is maintained on the front-end of the website as well when logged in.

Here [hash] represents the value that is obtained by applying a specific mathematical formula applied to the username and password. It is to ensure that the input values are safe, and no one can access these data using the cookies as it is difficult to ‘unhash’ the hashed data.

The cookie wp-settings-{time}-[UID] is used to customise the view of your admin interface and the front-end of the website. The value represented by [UID] is the individual user ID of the user as given to them in the users’ database table.

WordPress also sets a cookie named wordpress_test_cookie to check if the cookies are enabled on the browser to provide appropriate user experience to the users. This cookie is used on the front-end, even if you are not logged in.

Please note that the following third parties may also use cookies, over which we have no control. These third parties may include, for example, advertising networks and providers of external services like web traffic analysis services.
