User Privileges on non-vB pages
 
I am looking to make certain non-vB pages on my site accessible on various levels (i.e. Certain parts are displayed for Registered Users, additional parts are displayed for Mods/Admins, and Guests are brought to the vB login screen,) using the vBulletin cookie, but I have no idea about:

1) How to require the cookie for access.

2) How to make certain parts accessible to certain user-levels.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Try these two hacks maybe?

Those seem to use sessions, and I am looking to use cookies so users don't have to re-login every time. I want to have users login/register from the vB board itself, while the non-vB pages verify the cookie generated by vB. Is using the vB cookie on non-vB pages relatively safe, or is it opening a potential 'can of worms' of security risks?

Saw something about cookies in this thread:

That seems to just be a login portal for vB, but doesn't use the cookie for access to non-vB pages. What I am looking for (not a "hack" per se) is something that will allow me to do this on non-vB pages:

PHP Code:

//Not using literal PHP syntax

if (vBulletin cookie is present)
{

if (
user is a registered user)
{echo 
Regular user content;}
elseif (
user is a moderator)
{echo 
Mod content;}
elseif (
user in an administrator)
{echo 
Admin-only content;}

}

else {echo 
"You must be a registered user to view this page. Please login or register";}

I think you'll like WebTemplates

I am not really looking to hack up my vB, especially since vB3 is due out any month now. I noticed this bit of code in the thread for your hack:

PHP Code:

<?php
// Default Information - Start with this
error_reporting(7);

$templatesused='forumhome_welcometext,forumhome_logoutcode,forumhome_newposts,forumhome_todayposts,forumhome_logincode';

require(
'./global.php');

$permissions=getpermissions();
if (!
$permissions['canview']) {
    
show_nopermission();
}
// Default Information - End

// if user is know, then welcome
if ($bbuserinfo['userid']!=0) {
  
$username=$bbuserinfo['username'];
  eval(
"\$welcometext = \"".gettemplate('forumhome_welcometext')."\";");
  eval(
"\$logincode = \"".gettemplate('forumhome_logoutcode')."\";");
  eval(
"\$newposts = \"".gettemplate('forumhome_newposts')."\";");

} else {
  
$welcometext "";
  eval(
"\$newposts = \"".gettemplate('forumhome_todayposts')."\";");
  eval(
"\$logincode = \"".gettemplate('forumhome_logincode')."\";");
}

eval(
"dooutput(\"".gettemplate('home')."\");");


?>

Would something like this be adequate for permissions on non-vB pages?

If you are ready to manually edit/update permissions per .php file without any user interface for administration, yes you can just insert:

PHP Code:

require('./global.php'); 

at the begining of your .php file (assumed its in the forum dir), then check the permissions with "if" commands like:

PHP Code:

if ($bbuserinfo['userid']>0
{
//do something
}
else
{
//do another thing


etc.

Is it possible to do this using a file that is not in my forums directory?

My directory structure is:

public_html
-forums
---admin
---images
---mod

I'm getting this error

PHP Code:

Warningmain() [function.main]: Unable to access ./admin/config.php in /home/virtual/www/public_html/forums/global.php on line 129

Warning
main(./admin/config.php) [function.main]: failed to create streamNo such file or directory in /home/virtual/www/public_html/forums/global.php on line 129 

and I'm using this code to get the global.php file:

PHP Code:

require('/home/virtual/www/public_html/forums/global.php'); 


Logician 02-25-2003 07:34 PM

PHP Code:

chdir('/home/virtual/www/public_html/forums/');
require(
'./global.php');
