Need help big time

Right i have no idea how to go about this but basicy i want to password some areas of my site useing my vb database info.

The site and board are on same host server but not the same domain.

i want to make it so if you try to get to a page that you needed to be signed in for its shows you a login page but if your loged in it takes you right to the real page, also if your logged out and you login on that page i want it so it takes you to that page and not back to the main index page.

I already have it working useing a php/mysql login i found but it does not use my vb database where has thats who i want it working save people having to sign up 2 times.

code im useing right now on a page that needs you to be logged in to view is this:

PHP Code:


		
			


<?php

include "auth.php";  // always include this, always.

$USER=new user('',$user_name,$id_hash,'','','','');

if ($USER->islogged_in()) {

  site_header('Welcome back!');



?> 



//Main page html code goes here



<?

  account_links(); // shows account links from functions.inc

  site_footer();

} else {

  site_header('Welcome');

  login_form();  // displays login form if not logged in

  site_footer();

 }

?>

You can include the global.php file from your VB installation, and then use a simple IF to determine the usergroupid of the logged user:

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php



require("path/to/vbulletin/global.php");



if ($bbuserinfo["usergroupid"]==6) { // is admin

  //misc stuff

} elseif ($bbuserinfo["usergroupid"]==1) { // a guest

  //stuff only for guests

}

something like that... Just sneak into the vbulletin files, and you will learn how to identify an user!

Hope this helps!

you may want to take a look at this hack too, if your secured pages are HTML, not PHP..

hehe i already found that hack deep down the lists last night after this post it works great thanx just what i wanted but is there a way to edit it so the templates pages can be called for from a address out side of the boards?

because my site is at www.ultimatesteps.com and my boards at www.ultimate-forums.co.uk? this way i can still keep the same address showing.

i guess i could use a mysql database to hide the address's but there most be a easyer way. that takes less time.

well I can't think an easy way. BTW how do you plan to use "mysql database" to hide the address, I didnt get it?

you can set up a data base and some php code to call from the data base and basicy you can turn a address in to the domain address with just a id number, its used to make long page address's short but it could be used to hide the address.

eg:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/hdhd/dhdh...howthread.php?

could get turn it to

http://www.vbulletin.org/yourphp.php=id1

im not up to speed with the full codeing but i know it can be done.

You dont need a database to do it, it's a little .htaccess redirect trick. However AFAIK .htaccess redirect changes the URL to the latter after the redirection. So for example if in your address bar you write:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/hdhd...showthread.php?

you are automatically moved to

http://www.vbulletin.org/yourphp.php=id1

if set in .htaccess, but right after the redirection, your URL line will be read as:

http://www.vbulletin.org/yourphp.php=id1

as well..I'm not aware if there is an advanced tip to prevent this behaviour..
