Hi,

In the Geolocation Plugin documentation it states that information is cached in a users session. How do I go about accessing this? I have tried using getIPLocation from class geolocation but this appears to make another request to IPinfodb.

Thanks

Hi,

HikaShop is working with his zones ; when the geolocation is called, it stores the corresponding HikaShop zone in the session. Code:

$app = JFactory::getApplication(); $zone = $app-&gt;getUserState(HIKASHOP_COMPONENT.'.zone_id', 0);
