Mike - a little help por favor

I want to eliminate the sub that requires the admin to actively log in to the control panel every browser session. I have it protected with .htaccess, I don't really need it protected with the native login routine. I've searched all the scripts in the /forums/admin directory, but haven't been able to locate that section. Since the page is /forums/admin/index.php you would think that it would be in the index.php script, but apparently it's not.

Do you know offhand which script it's located in, and would I have to do anything else but eliminate that routine? I mean, would it conflict with anything anywhere else?

Thanks bud

I think it's in global.php....somewhere

global.php, look for

if ($bbuserid==0) {
?>
<html>
<head><title>Forums admin</title>
<body>
<p>You are either not a valid administrator or have not logged in. Please log in now:</p>
<form action="index.php" method=post>
<input type="hidden" name="redirect" value="<?php

if (GETENV("REQUEST_URI")!="") {
  echo GETENV("REQUEST_URI");
} else {
  echo $PHP_SELF;
}

?>">

that entire if should be deleted.

Thanks Menno & doron -

Found it - works beautifully!
