Login

kkroo · Post by **kkroo** » Sat Dec 03, 2005 4:57 pm

I would like to know how to make wy website so that users can log on and the login is from phpBB, and i want to know how to make a page restricted on my website which needs authorization, and phpBB members can authorize themselves by loging in.

in other words i want it so that i can put {L_LOGIN_LOGOUT} on my page and that turns to either Login or Log out [user] and so on...

If it is too hard to explain, just send me a ZIP file and make index.php the page where i can put in my data and put like a restricted.php page which requires autorization by a phpBB member to be viewed , and just put a readme of what i need to edit.

Thanks Sooooo much!

This really isn't a MOD request if you're asking for code outside of phpBB... so, I'm moving this to MOD Writers Discussion.

Take a note of this KB article.

i did all that here on my test page http://kkroo.xena-free.com/forum.php, and i entered {L_LOGIN_LOGOUT}, it didn't replace in with Log in or Log out [user] why is this? and i do not understand how to do check for autorization. that part that says [insert your HTML/PHP or whatever here], i do not know what to put there!

Depending on your experience w/ PHP and Databases;

You could write a small program to run at the top os all "protected" page that scans the PHPBB Database for the user's IP address. If the database shows that IP as loged in, then show the page

If you don't know PHP, then this will probably sound like gibberish to you, but this if what the program would look like.

This is an example program, not a full scale one. This is not entended to be run, and I'm sure there are a small error, or two.

You must change anything in "[ ]" to the propper item according to what's in the brackets.

If you want PHP's web site is: http://www.php.net

Code: Select all

<?php

// Program Functions
 
 // Encrypt IP (Found in /includes/functions.php)
 function encode_ip($dotquad_ip)
 {
	$ip_sep = explode('.', $dotquad_ip);
	return sprintf('%02x%02x%02x%02x', $ip_sep[0], $ip_sep[1], $ip_sep[2], $ip_sep[3]);
 }
 
// 

##############################################################################
// Main Program

// Connect to Database  (This is using MySQL)
mysql_connect([host],[username],[password]);  // Set the "[ ]" stuff to the appropriate items
mysql_select_db([database name]);             // [database name] = The name of the database that PHPBB uses

// Encrypt User's IP
$ip=encode_ip($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']);

// Scan fo user's IP Address
$access=mysql_query("SELECT loged_in FROM phpbb_sessions WHERE id='$ip'");

// Test to see if the IP address is found and if so, see if it's logged in. logged in

if (mysql_num_rows ($access)) exit;		// If User is logged in, exit program (a simple way to show the data)
else header("location: http://example.com/login.php");  // If failed, sen user to login page
?>

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also,

{L_LOGIN_LOGOUT} simply tells PHPBB's templateing system to replace it with what is stored in the language file being used. (not the "L" at the begining). This is how PHPBB can be translated into other languages.

What I think you are thinking is "
 and

which I'm not entirely sure how this works.

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare encode_ip() (previously declared in /home/kkroolay/public_html/forum/includes/functions.php:378) in /home/kkroolay/public_html/include.php on line 6

i got it to work! all is working but stuff like {L_LOGIN_LOGOUT} and {T_BODY_BACKGROUND} and so on. so that means my templating system is not functioning.

do you know how to get them to work?

Thanks

you need to include and initialize the template engine

template.php or something in includes I believe, check the common.php to see how it's done there

i found the functions in page_header.php , but, i do not know how to include them.

Dman8568 · Post by **Dman8568** » Sun Dec 04, 2005 6:29 pm

If you include common.php this will initialize the Database, Language and Templating System. Along with some Anti-Hacking measures.
