Site-wide integration
 
Hello,

I am moving from phpBB to vB, which I just purchased. I had a script for my phpBB which allowed me to display user information on any page on my website, and allowed users to login on any page of my website. With this script I could write my own little scripts, like:

if (user is logged in) {
do this
} else {
do this
}

The script also allowed me to retreive the users name if they were logged on. Does anything like this exist for vB?

Thank you. :)

Yes it does...you may also want to check out vBAdvanced CMS

It does, where? And vBAdvanced CMS isn't what I want, that is a portal-type system. This script I could simply include on any PHP page on my site.

If you include vB's global.php on your php page, it basically does what you're looking for I'm pretty sure.
PHP Code:
// Near or at the begining of the php file
require_once('./global_stock.php'); 
Then something like this....
PHP Code:
if ($bbuserinfo['userid']){
// If they are logged in, then do this
//stuff here
}
else{
// If they aren't logged in, do something else here.
} 
.... furthermore... (correct me if I'm wrong), but you can do a check to see if someone ISN'T logged in by adding an exclamation mark...
PHP Code:
if (!$bbuserinfo['userid']){

}

Hey Tekton, that works. :) Is there any way to retreive the users username if they are logged in?

$bbuserinfo[username]

Not sure if you need the quotes like 'username'; I can't remember off-hand.

By the way, if you didn't know this is an interesting fact. You can user the $bbuserinfo[] on ANY field in your database's user table.

$bbuserinfo[posts]
$bbuserinfo[ipaddress]
$bbuserinfo[gold]
etc...

Just in case you wanted to know! ^__^;;

Tekton, thanks alot! Now I can display all sorts of user information on any page of my site when the user is logged in. :)

Tekton 09-17-2004 03:02 AM
No problem :) It's all done already in the global file, so no use running any unnecessary queries to get that data at least. Good luck!

I spotted a problem. It will display the users information even if they have not been activated by a moderator. Is there a way to write a test as to whether the user is actually active and logged in?

Edit: I guess I should say, can I write a test script if the user is apart of the "awaiting moderation" usergroup?
