How to save cookie-like data without using the database and cookies?

Question

I am not sure whether this is exclusive to wordpress or not. I am trying to overwrite some user data that appears to be stored in a cookie. For guests it's only a cookie, but for registered users it's also stored somewhere else and it takes priority over the cookie, even if I delete it or set a new one. It does change when I edit it from the place it's supposed to be edited, but I exported the entire database before and after doing so and there is no change. Is there a way to save data that persists between pages and takes priority over cookies and doesn't use the database?

Answer 1

You may use local storage get data from server and save it in local storage. the data will be available between pages. check this out http://www.w3schools.com/html/html5_webstorage.asp
