* The method `logOutButKeepSession` from class `Auth` is now simply called `logOut`. Therefore, the former method `logout` is now called `logOutAndDestroySession`. With both methods, mind the capitalization of the letter “O”.
* Only if *both* of the following two conditions are met:
* The directive `session.cookie_domain` is set to an empty value. It may have been set directly in your [PHP configuration](http://php.net/manual/en/configuration.file.php) (`php.ini`), via the `\ini_set` method or via the `\session_set_cookie_params` method. You can check the value of that directive by executing the following statement somewhere in your application:
```php
\var_dump(\ini_get('session.cookie_domain'));
```
* Your application is accessed via a registered or registrable *domain name*, either by yourself during development and testing or by your visitors and users in production. That means your application is *not*, or *not only*, accessed via `localhost` or via an IP address.
Then the domain scope for the [two cookies](#cookies) used by this library has changed. You can handle this change in one of two different ways:
* Restore the old behavior by placing the following statement as early as possible in your application, and before you create the `Auth` instance:
```php
\ini_set('session.cookie_domain', \preg_replace('/^www\./', '', $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']));
```
You may also evaluate the complete second parameter and put its value directly into your [PHP configuration](http://php.net/manual/en/configuration.file.php) (`php.ini`).
* Use the new domain scope for your application. To do so, you only need to [rename the cookies](#renaming-the-librarys-cookies) used by this library in order to prevent conflicts with old cookies that have been created previously. Renaming the cookies is critically important here. We recommend a versioned name such as `session_v1` for the session cookie.
* Only if *both* of the following two conditions are met:
* The directive `session.cookie_domain` is set to a value that starts with the `www` subdomain. It may have been set directly in your [PHP configuration](http://php.net/manual/en/configuration.file.php) (`php.ini`), via the `\ini_set` method or via the `\session_set_cookie_params` method. You can check the value of that directive by executing the following statement somewhere in your application:
```php
\var_dump(\ini_get('session.cookie_domain'));

* Your application is accessed via a registered or registrable *domain name*, either by yourself during development and testing or by your visitors and users in production. That means your application is *not*, or *not only*, accessed via `localhost` or via an IP address.
Then the domain scope for [one of the cookies](#cookies) used by this library has changed. To make your application work correctly with the new scope, [rename the cookies](#renaming-the-librarys-cookies) used by this library in order to prevent conflicts with old cookies that have been created previously. Renaming the cookies is critically important here. We recommend a versioned name such as `session_v1` for the session cookie.
## From `v5.x.x` to `v6.x.x`
* The database schema has changed.
