Answer 1

Your expiry date is set incorrectly. You don't have to include the time(), as what you're setting is actually the expiry date from time().

When you have an incorrect expire value, it defaults to 0, which is set as your session's length instead.

Therefore it should be:

            $cookie = array(
            'name'   => 'basket_id',
            'value'  => $basket_id,
            'expire' => 86400*30,
            'domain' => 'domain',
            'path'   => '/',
            'prefix' => '',
        );
