Remote login

Update: Works for 2.2.2

This hack will allow you to put a login for your vB anywhere on your site, and then once the user logs in, they are returned to where they were.

Requirements:
Your entire site must be php, it determines its location (to return user) via php. If there is demand enough, I'll make it work with plain jane HTML.

Hi,
I do not want to have a login on non-vB pages ... but I want to have the login thing on the forumdisplay template.

So what do I have to change and tu put in when I want to do this?

I would be really happy if you could do this with this hack ..

I'm surprised you don't have more feedback on this yet. This is exactly what I have been looking to implement on my site. Worked like a charm - thanks!

This is what you can use for a HTML page, if your not phpized.

<br>
<div align="center">
<a href="http://forumspathgo'shere/register.php" target="_new">Sign Up!</a><br>
<br>
</div>
<form action="http://forumspathgo'shere/member.php" method="post" target="_new">
<input type="hidden" name="s" value="$session[sessionhash]">
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="login">
                  <table width="131" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
                    <tr> 
                      <div align="center">Username</td>
                    </div>
                    <tr> 
                      <div align="center">
<input type="text" name="username" size="7" />
                      </div>
                    </tr>
                    <tr> 
                      <div align="center">Password</div>
                    </tr>
                    <tr> 
                      <div align="center"> 
                        <input type="password" name="password" size="7" />
                      </div>
                    </tr>
                    <tr>
                      <div align="center"> 
 <br>                       
<input type="submit" value="Login!" />
                      </div>
                    </tr>
                  </table>
</form>
