Accepted Answer

For creating yii session

```
Yii::app()->session['userid'] = "value";
```

You can get value like this

```
$sleep = Yii::app()->session['userid'];
```

And unset session like

```
unset(Yii::app()->session['userid']); # Remove the session
```

In case of user signs out , you have to remove all the session.

```
Yii::app()->session->clear();
```

After this, you need to remove actual data from server

```
Yii::app()->session->destroy();
```
