Login Redirection

[t0ny]

Hi there,

I am login into vB from an external site, that has the login details sitting in an iFrame; so i can use PHP.

Once I have successfully logged in vB directs me back to the refering page which is the iFrame contents.

Can anyone tell me where/what I need to mod in vB; so I can check what the refering page is after login, to the carry on with the redirect OR forward back to my external parent page?

Can someone move this for me, got the wrong area!!

you have to edit that function with your own code to be able to redirect where you want to go...

Thanks for that, I was just on my way to post.

I modified it to test where there login request came from and then just redirect back; so i don't get the iFrame contents.

Think I am getting closer to external logins now...

Oh, also..

this value : $vbulletin->userinfo['lastvisit'] stores the date in that long digit format.. in vB is there any functions to display this in the correct date format for the logged in user?

in vB, all the "dates and times" are managed by the function vb_date:

in /forum/includes/functions.php around line 2731:
function vbdate($format, $timestamp = TIMENOW, $doyestoday = false, $locale = true, $adjust = true, $gmdate = false)

Hello,

What would I place or change in that function. Could you please include example code for me. I have place my sign-in html page outside of vbulletin and want it to login to my index.php in vbulletin.

Thank you,

Yes, please. I would also like to know how to redirect back the cmps page. This would be most helpful. Thankyou ~D
