Hack Description

This is a cutdown version of the user authentication and access control system I use on the non vB pages on my website.

This uses the vB 3.5 login system to log you in and out. It allows you to move between your forums and other pages on your site while remaining logged in.

It allows you to do things such as restrict pages by usergroup, display different content depending on a user being logged in or not.
For example, you can have banner Adds displying to non members only, and/or let members access to specific content.

Ive cut it down to the bare minimum that it needs to work, no fancy stuff such as avatars, PM's, or even formating.

I will try and offer support, but work and family commitments mean I dont have much free time.

This code is a mix of my own, and pieces I have used from other hacks that are floating around.

This script has been confirmed as working on
  • vB 3.5.x - All Versions


Changelog

Version 1.30 (24th April 2007)

Ok guys, I am having a slight problem. I am using the test.php script that was posted here. When I have the script outside of my forum directory, like my httpdroot directory, as soon as I try to login, I get a login.php not found error. However, when the script is in my /httpdroot/forum directory, it works just fine. I have my cookie path set to / and I dunno what else the problem could be. I've checked the login_inc.php file, but all links to login.php seem like they include the forumpath as a prefix... anyone have any ideas??

Sounds like a path problem more than anything else.

Look at point 2 under troubleshooting https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....98&postcount=2

Run that script in the same directory as login.php and make sure you use that path.

Yeah, I am using the exact same path as I get from that php in point 2 of troubleshooting. Is there anything else?

Here is an update on the situation.

I am using the test.php you have mentioned previously in this thread.

I have test.php in three different places on my host:

/httpdroot
/httpdroot/forum
/httpdroot/auction

Now, when I remove the chdir statement at the top of the script, in both the httpdroot and auction test.php's, the screen is just blank white, no source. The forum test.php works fine.

Previously, when I had the chdir statement at the top of the test.php's, the auction and httpdroot test.php's gave a login.php not found error, it stated it was looking for login.php in the httpdroot, which is not were it was. However, the forum test.php still worked fine.

So, how can I get files OUTSIDE of my forum directory to work with this?

I've now tried various thngs with the chdir at the top, omitting it, adding another one after the require, changing the path to of the test.php file and still nothing. The only one that works is the one in the main forum directory.

Probably been answered and the answer is probably no.

however can this work on my other sites, for example use the login details on site www.a.com to also work on site www.b.com


i want all my users on my current site to be able to login on this new site im going to create which will have an arcade system on it.

thanks

To show different content depending of if people are logged in or not, you want to use this one.
PHP Code:
<?php 
If ($vbulletin->userinfo['userid']!=0
    {     
    echo 
"Your logged in so we can display this"
    } else { 
    echo 
"Your not logged in so we display this"
    } 
?>
The content can be text, html, php, inlude another page etc.
doesn't seems to work either :S

No, you're not understanding. All these directories are under the same domain.

Correct on both counts.

You can try step 4 of the trouble shooting guide, but I doubt if it will work.

Yes, that would be correct. If you remeove chdir then the only way it should work is if its in the forums directory.

Make sure you edited the path in the login_inc.php file correctly.
What you are describing is the symptons when you are using incorrect Paths.

PHP Code:
<?php
   chdir
('/path/to/your/forums'); 
   require_once(
'/path/to/your/forums/global.php');  
?>
That MUST be at the very top of the page else it will not work.

just a thought, is your Hosting on a windows box?
