Comment:
Thanks for this ticket. I agree we can add a sentence about cross-
subdomains.
> Also it would be useful to add the info that you need to remove already
set cookies in order to make it work.
It is already [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.2/ref/settings
/#session-cookie-domain documented]: ''"Be cautious when updating this
setting on a production site. If you update this setting to enable cross-
domain cookies on a site that previously used standard domain cookies,
**existing user cookies will be set to the old domain. This may result in
them being unable to log in as long as these cookies persist.**"''
Documentation is a part of
[https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/docs/ref/settings.txt main
repository], patch is welcome.
