number array not working in login_process?

I'm currently attempting to gain a specific number from an API and when it matches, moving the user to another usergroup. Now, usually the array has letters in it, but this specific array merely has a simple number.

Code:

// Configuration 

$steamRepScamTitles = array( // Dictionary describing the user title that should be set depending on the tag 

    '2' => array(  

        'title' => '<span style="color:darkyellow;font-weight:bold">Trade Banned</span>', 

        'groupid' => 40

    ) 

);  



if(!function_exists("get_steamrep_scamtype"))

{

    function get_steamrep_scamtype($steam_id, $steamRepScamTitles)

    {

        // Fetch SteamRep Data

        $steamRepAPIURL = sprintf("http://steamrep.com/api/beta3/reputation/%s?tagdetails=1&extended=1", $steam_id);

        $steamRepXML =  simplexml_load_file($steamRepAPIURL);

with:

Code:

$fullReputation = $steamRepXML->tradeban;

to get the appropriate value in the specified xml table.

^ both plugins code above is only partial of the system, example API that is being used:

http://steamrep.com/api/beta3/reputa...s=1&extended=1

Now. The idea is that the XML tradeban with 'array' 2 is being checked and when matches, user is being moved to another usergroup accordingly. However, it doesn't appear to be working, at all. When I set this system on eg, forumdisplay/forumhome hook.. it works directly and moves the user instantly. But for what ever reason, login_process refuses to work.

The other systems checking the API (with letters as array) works as a charm of which are also in the login_process hook, so I'm rather confused why it's not working at all. At first I thought it was the invalid usergroup movement code, but after some testing.. it appears to be the number in the array of which is not working in the login_process hook.

If anyone can help me with this, greatly appreciated.

The login_process hook is called inside a function (while the forumdisplay and forumhome are not). So any global variables you use (whether you're creating them or reading them) have to be declared global in your plugin code.

Code:

// Configuration 

$steamRepScamTitles = array( // Dictionary describing the user title that should be set depending on the tag 

    'CAUTION' => array(  

        'title' => '<span style="color:darkyellow;font-weight:bold">Caution User</span>', 

        'groupid' => 37

    ) 

);

while numbers don't. Any idea?

Oh, so you were saying that a string key in the array works? I missed that part. No, I can't think of why that would be. I don't quite understand exactly what you're checking though.

http://steamrep.com/api/beta3/reputa...s=1&extended=1

the API is currently down, so I can't show you direct results.

But needless to say, here's an example using my above code:

Code:

$steamRepAPIURL = sprintf("http://steamrep.com/api/beta3/reputation/%s?tagdetails=1&extended=1", $steam_id);

        $steamRepXML =  simplexml_load_file($steamRepAPIURL);

Code:

$fullReputation = $steamRepXML->tradeban;

This part of the code, checks the <tradeban> xml field.

On the above URL, (once its back up) it shows under tradeban: <tradeban>2</tradeban>
This means the user has been trade banned on steam (if you are familiar with steam).

Now, this code:

Code:

// Configuration 

$steamRepScamTitles = array( // Dictionary describing the user title that should be set depending on the tag 

    '2' => array(  

        'title' => '<span style="color:darkyellow;font-weight:bold">Trade Banned</span>', 

        'groupid' => 40

    ) 

);

Checks if the user is under "2", sets the title for that user and puts the user in groupid 40.

The rest of the code that I haven't posted in this thread are just Setup variables and $dataman code to move the user (I can PM you the full code if interested).

Just for some reason, it's not checking the numbered array under login_process, while it works (as I mentioned) when using letters.

Well, you say:

But that code doesn't check anything, it just creates an array.

That's where the rest of the 'setup variables' comes into play. Can I PM you the full code so you have an understanding how it works?

If you want to PM it I'll look it over. Sometimes you just need a second pair of eyes.
