Authenticated User Session Control On Non-VB Page

[LifesGreatestGift]

I am currently running an image hosting script and want to limit it to my members only.

The image hosting script is located at

/home/jesse123/public_html/TW7S.com/images/

and my forum is

/home/jesse123/public_html/TheWindows7Site.com/forum/

Here is the code I have in the image hosting scripts index page:

PHP Code:

<?

$url = "http://www.thewindows7site.com/forum/";


$curdir = getcwd ();
chdir('/home/jesse123/public_html/thewindows7site.com/forum');
require_once('/home/jesse123/public_html/thewindows7site.com/forum/global.php');


if ($bbuserinfo['userid'] =0) {


?>
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">
<!--
alert("You Must Register/Login To The Forum\n\To Use This Feature. -Administration Team");

   window.location="<?php echo $url; ?>";
// -->
</script>

<?

}

else

{
   echo"Thanks For Logging In, <b>$username</b>";
}

chdir ($curdir);

// IMAGE HOSTING SCRIPT .........

What am I doing wrong?

Try this:

PHP Code:

<?php

error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);

define('NO_REGISTER_GLOBALS', 1);
define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'pageName'); 

chdir ("../forum");
require_once('./global.php');

if (! $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'])
{
    print_no_permission();
    exit();
}
echo "Hello!";

exec_shut_down();
?>

Thanks for the reply

now when i visit the image hosting script, it redirects me to my forums login, I login and nothing happens.

Here is the image hosting

http://images.tw7s.com/
>exact location: /home/jesse123/public_html/TW7S.com/images

and here is my forum

http://thewindows7site.com/forum/
>exact location: /home/jesse123/public_html/thewindows7site.com/forum

I added this to the image host script

PHP Code:

<?

$url = "http://www.thewindows7site.com/forum/";


error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);

define('NO_REGISTER_GLOBALS', 1);
define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'pageName'); 

chdir('/home/jesse123/public_html/thewindows7site.com/forum');
require_once('/home/jesse123/public_html/thewindows7site.com/forum/global.php');

if (! $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'])
{
    print_no_permission();
    exit();
}
echo "Hello!";

exec_shut_down();

// Below Here Is Image Host Script Index Code //

cookies aren't going to work across different domains like that.

[LifesGreatestGift]

so i should put the script in forum/image/ ??

Its on the same server

[Andrew Green]

yes, you also don't need the full path for the chdir and require, the relative paths in my example should work.

ok image script is now in

/home/jesse123/public_html/thewindows7site.com/forum/imagehost

and forum is in

/home/jesse123/public_html/thewindows7site.com/forum

I put the following at the top of the imagehost index.php

PHP Code:

<?

$url = "http://www.thewindows7site.com/forum/";


error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);

define('NO_REGISTER_GLOBALS', 1);
define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'pageName'); 

chdir ("../forum");
require_once('./global.php');

if (! $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'])
{
    print_no_permission();
    exit();
}
echo "Hello!";

exec_shut_down();

// Rest of Image Host Script Below //

and get this

Warning: chdir() [function.chdir]: No such file or directory (errno 2) in /home/jesse123/public_html/thewindows7site.com/forum/imagehost/index.php on line 11

Warning: require_once(./global.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/jesse123/public_html/thewindows7site.com/forum/imagehost/index.php on line 12

with this going into a subfolder of forum go with this:

PHP Code:

chdir ("../");

ok, its working! Thank you! But one quick question

How would I go about changing it from giving a no permission login screen when not logged in, to having my popup, and directing them to the main page like this

PHP Code:

$url = "http://www.thewindows7site.com/forum/";

<NON CODED> If user isnt logged in

then do this</NON CODED>

<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">
<!--
alert("You Must Register/Login To The Forum\n\To Use This Feature. -Administration Team");

   window.location="<?php echo $url; ?>";
// -->
</script>

Where it says "print_no_permission();" is what happens if they don't have a userid.

Where it says "hello!" is what happens if they do.

Replace each as you see fit.
