If you want to change the session id on each log in, make sure to use session_regenerate_id(true) during the log in process.

<?php
session_start
();
session_regenerate_id(true);
?>

It took me a while to figure out how to destroy a particular session in php. Note I'm not sure if solution provided below is perfect but it seems work for me. Please feel free to post any easier way to destroy a particular session. Because it's quite useful for functionality of force an user offline.

1. If you're using db or memcached to manage session, you can always delete that session entry directly from db or memcached.

2. Using generic php session methods to delete a particular session(by session id).

<?php
$session_id_to_destroy
= 'nill2if998vhplq9f3pj08vjb1';
// 1. commit session if it's started.
if (session_id()) {
session_commit();
}

// 2. store current session id
session_start();
$current_session_id = session_id();
session_commit();

// 3. hijack then destroy session specified.
session_id($session_id_to_destroy);
session_start();
session_destroy();
session_commit();

// 4. restore current session id. If don't restore it, your current session will refer to the session you just destroyed!
session_id($current_session_id);
session_start();
session_commit();

I'm using PHP 7.1 and received the following warning when implementing Example #1, above:

PHP message: PHP Warning: session_destroy(): Trying to destroy uninitialized session in...

What I discovered is that clearing $_SESSION and removing the cookie destroys the session, hence the warning. To avoid the warning while still keeping the value of using session_destroy(), do this after everything else:

if (session_status() == PHP_SESSION_ACTIVE) { session_destroy(); }

All of a sudden neither session_destroy() nor $_SESSION=[] were sufficient to log out. I found the next to work:
<?php
setcookie
(session_name(), session_id(), 1); // to expire the session
$_SESSION = [];
?>
