I have a site and a forum, I would like to allow users to register at the site, and be automatically registered for the forum

As a matter of simplicity I would like to keep the databases seperate (they are both fairly large)

Right now here is my sql statement to register a new user

PHP Code:


			
// date for entry
                    $date=date('y m d');
                    // IP ADRESS
                    #
                    $userIP = $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'];
                    if($userIP == "")
                    {
                        $userIP = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
                    }
                    // Get a salt
                    $salt = substr(md5(rand().rand()), 0, 3);
                    // work with password 2 here
                    $password2= md5(md5($password2).$salt);
                    
                    $addvb= mysql_query("INSERT INTO `civclash_user` (`usergroupid`,`username`,`passworddate`,`password`, `email`, `ipaddress`, `salt`, `showvbcode`) VALUES ('2','$username', '$date', '$password2', '$email', '$userIP', '$salt', '1')");
                    if ($addvb){
                        echo "<br /> You were also added to the forum, see www.civclash.com/forums/index.php";
                    }  else {
                        echo "You could not be added to the forum. Contact the administration.";
                    }

So essentially I am just making my registration form work for two different databases

Unfortunately (for some strange reason) when I add the new user, all their posts are listed as guest(it says their name, but lists them as guest, on the member list I can visit their profile and it shows them as a member). I can only think that it is because I forgot to add something to that query?

Sorry, I am decent at php, but by no means an expert

Any Help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

There is more to just adding a row in the user table in registering a user in vBulletin. Use the datamanager, it will handle everything for you (once you feed it data).

jstep · #3 06-29-2008, 01:09 PM

is there anywhere I can find a description of the datamanager?

and where is it in the code?

thanks for your help

edit: I reckon this should do it? https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...ht=datamanager

You can't output anything before including vBulletin.

jstep · #7 06-29-2008, 08:49 PM

i fixed this by having a

PHP Code:


			
echo "You will now be registered for the forum.";

                        echo "<meta http-equiv='Refresh' content='2; URL=./forums/forumadd.php?username=$username&password=$password2&email=$email'/>";

and then the forumadd handles everything else

Now if I can just make it so you can't just add in anything in those $_GET variables to create a new account

eclectus · #8 06-30-2008, 12:38 PM

you could echo out a form with hidden fields, and then do form.submit() at the end, it will forward the form with POST so nothing is exposed

Using form.submit() will not work if Javascript is disabled.
