View Full Version : Checking user group from a non vb page

I have the following code in my footer, which is included on every page:

<?php

$forumpath = "http://www.mysite.com/community/forums/";

if ($vbulletin->userinfo['groupid']=6) {

echo "Admin/Mod CP button goes here!";
}
?>

I want it to check to see if the user is logged into vB and is in the admin usergroup, and if so, to display a button that links to the admin cp.

right now, it is showing the button regardless of log in status. what variable does vB use to store the user's usergroup?


thanks,

nick

With conditionals I use:


<if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, x)">
Your code here
</if>


Just extract from "is". Where "x" is just replace it with the Usergroup ID. To add more ID's add ", y, z" and so forth.

With:


<if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 6)">
My code here
</if>


I get:

"Parse error: parse error, unexpected '<' in /home/.sites/22/site13/web/livexchange/footer.php on line 66"

You'll need to adjust the code to make it work. That was just an example conditional used in vB. I'm not sure exactly what the PHP protocol is but maybe:


if ($vbulletin->userinfo['usergroupid']=="6")
{
echo "Admin/Mod CP button goes here!";
}

That doesn't produce any errors, but it doesn't do anything either...

I think there needs to be some other code before it to tell the script that it is looking for a vB variable...

You need to include the config.php I'd say.

No, Config.php just contains server-connect information.

You could do:

$forumpath = "http://www.mysite.com/community/forums";
require_once($forumpath . '/global.php');

global $vbulletin;

if ( is_member_of($vbulletin, 6) )
{
echo "Admin CP and ModCP links go here";
}

unset($vbulletin);

Doesn't seem to be working. I tried the code you gave me, but it just causes the page to sit forever, then asks me if i want to run or download the PHP file.

The whole footer is as follows:
