Integration with vBulletin - Deluxe vB User login and access control on non vB pages

Hack Description

This is the deluxe version of the user authentication and access control system I use on the non vB pages on my website.
For the simple no frills version [URL=https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=173693look here.[/URL]

This uses the vB 3.7 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.

It also displays the logged in users Avatar, number of unread PM's, New posts since last visit, total posts and total threads.
It also allows you to specify a maximum Avatar size, and resize any avatars larger than that, while keeping their height/width ratios in proportion!
Its very handy if you allow large avatars, but want a small format display on your non forum pages.

If the user is not logged in, a login box is displayed, along with total posts and total threads in the forums.

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.

Will not display Avatars correctly if they are kept in the file system (database avatars are fine)

Hello,
grieve for English but it was translated with google, voila I have a vBulletin license and your script "vB Deluxe User login and access control on non vB pages" because I'm interested me was that the root of my site there I have a system that manages the login. could you tell me if your latest version works for vBulletin 3.7.4 pl1. and say the modifications because I'm new to php.

Thank you in advance

I am having trouble with this. I have added the following code

$curdir = getcwd ();
chdir('/nfs/c02/h04/mnt/40498/domains/dev.scotthermanfitness.com/html/forum');
require_once('/nfs/c02/h04/mnt/40498/domains/dev.scotthermanfitness.com/html/forum/global.php');
chdir ($curdir);

When I load the page up, it goes right to the forum page telling me im not logged in. Its like its forwarding me to the forum.

Any ideas?

I need help. I have been at this for hours and i still have not figured it out.

I want this page to only be displayed to moderators and administrators. But its not working when i try to input ANY of the php scripts included with this hack.

PLEASE HELP!

Edit : It Does seem to work with Vb 3.8

[Aresetyr]

Is there any way to get this working under joomla 1.5? I am sitting here, trying to get it work with the jumi component, but won't really work

ps: with vb 3.8!

[Davey-UK]

This has worked fantastically for me for months now, but am now trying to add newest members etc via another mod called vBexternal.

Everything works fin apart from when i have both scripts on the same page, the login form shows up on my page instead of the welcome message, even though i am logged in on the forum page.

If i remove the vBexternal include from the page, it all works fine..

I have to add

require_once('./vBExternal.php');

to the top of the page, and wondered if you can only use "include_once" a certain number of times in one page, but i am thinking its more likely to be a set cookie problem

Any ideas please?
