I'm no coder but I want to insert your hack into joomla (I hate those bridges), is this possible?

I think I have to place it in a joomla module, but I don't know how :(

Indeed it does, I have it running on my site (3.6.4) and have logged alot of my site downloads with it, works very well. Displays avatars fine, not problems with it.

Archie, I may be able to help, give me a pm, Im pretty familiar with Joomla.

Edit - If anyone wants to add to this nice mod, by showing total num. of registered users, that would be nice ;)

Not without modification.
You would need someone quite skilled in joola to make the necessary modifications.


Will add to the todo list
(might already be on there actually)

Damn, I thought I found the perfect solution for my community without bridges :(

My first idea was creating a new module in joomla, insert your code there, publish this module and upload your login_inc.php file - But that would be too good to be true :(

It would work, but the only problem, is you cant add the first few lines to the top of the template file, you'd have to dig into Joomla code and work it into whatever writes the header and all. Think its the joomla.php file.

Oh Bill, if you don't get too it, I will grab it soon :D I am actually working on a news publishing script for my homepage (outside of VB), which comments and all take VB user info, and hope to get it integrated more to VB, so I will need something similar soon anyways.

Hi i am having one issue,
when i try to read a variable parsed through the URL:
index2.php?page=home
for example
when i access $_GET['page']
all it contains is 0
i ran some tests, and if i echo it BEFORE i include global.php it is fine, if i do it after i get 0

anyway to resolve this?

**edit it will let me enter numvbers for some reason, and will parse those through fine:
i.e:
index2.php?page=65464
is fine

** additional edit, just realised page must be a reserved word, for the page number the user wishes to view in a topic,
sorry about that.
Do you have a list of reserved words by any chance?

No.

I keep running into the same problem myself.
A list of vB reserved names would be very handy.

helo..if the target page placed in different server?
inthat case will it work?
or how could we?

Am I stupid or is it impossible to put the content of my choosing inside the "Your logged in so we can display this" field for the logged in users? It won't accept PHP includes (which I would prefer) or anything beyond normal HTML tags such as <center>, <br> or <p>. In result, I continue to receive parse errors. What am I doing wrong? :confused:
