ok this is driving me mad

this is the code i have

<?php echo "".construct_phrase($vbphrase[welcome_x],$bbuserinfo[username]);?>
but all i get is

welcome, .

global.php is working because all the phrases are working, its just this,

i dont think the $bbuserinfo{'userid'} is working either so its must be something to do with the $bbuserinfo variable or watever

any help would be very much appreciated,

thnx very much

3.5 does not use $bbuserinfo, it uses $vbulletin->userinfo .

Thanks for everyones help, Im getting really close. I now have it where your automatically logged into the chat room with your registered name. Im still having a problem though. I want the chat room to be password protected where members only can enter. With this code added if someone knows how to find the URL to the applet it will allow them to log in as Unregistered. Does anyone have any ideas on how to block them if they dont have a registered name?

Thanks in Advance to anyone that can help me

Make sure you note the fact that:
$vbulletin->userinfo = for anything in PHP code
$bbuserinfo = for use in the vBulletin templates.

<a href="login.php?$session[sessionurl]do=logout&logouthash=<?php echo "$vbulletin->userinfo[logouthash]"; ?>" onclick="return log_out()">$vbphrase[log_out]</a>

this is what i have for the logout link, what do i have to change the
$session[sessionurl] to?

because at the mo it not working like it is so i have to change $session to the new kind right?

but i dont know wat it is for $session[sessionurl]
