user session information

[Gamempire]

how can i take the functions of vbulletin to read the user session status? (if the user is a guest or not)

because i would like to put in my website (www.gamempire.it) a script that read the user session permission of the forum (www.forum.gamempire.it) and if it's logged in on the forum, it show something, and if the user is not logged in, it show something else..

like "
include ("../forum/something.php");
if ($vbuser['isloggedin']) { ... }
else { ... }
"

thanks

but if the file is not in the same directory of the forum, how can i include the global.php?
how can i set the forumpath for the global.php?

You will first need to use chdir() to change to the forum home directory. See also our articles section.

i tried, but i can't..if i open the file in the root forum, it will open, but in i tried to include in an other directory, it doesn't do..

-.- i'm not stupid..
i used the chdir but it doesn't work!

i will post the code:

portal.php (in www.gamempire.it/) --- this not work:
<?php
chdir("./forum");
require_once("includes/config.php");
require_once("global.php");
if ($vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] != 0) { echo "i'm inside"; } else { echo "so bad..."; }
?>

result: "so bad..."



portal.php (in www.gamempire.it/forum/) --- this work:
<?php
require_once("includes/config.php");
require_once("global.php");
if ($vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] != 0) { echo "i'm inside"; } else { echo "so bad..."; }
?>

result: "i'm inside"

refresh:

very strange things:

if i open
http://forum.gamempire.it/portal.php it works

but if i open http://www.gamempire.it/forum/portal.php
it doesn't works

and this is only a subdomain that go to the same directory (forum/)
