Login box

[FI-DD]

With the help of this login box you or your visitors can stay logged in.

This is quite usefull when only registered users are allowed to leave a comment because they don't have to type in their password everytime they comment.

When logging in using this login box you have to login once again if you want to use the admin panel.



Installation:

• Copy loginbox.php to your main CuteNews.RU folder
  
• Put this at the beginning of your news page: include('path_to_cute/loginbox.php');
  
• Put this where you want to show the login box in your news page: include('path_to_cute/loginbox.php');

Great FI-DD but I'm finding myself with some difficulties..

login: test

ww: test

Well, even though I stay logged in on the demo page (u/p: commenter/commenter) it's not working as expected, sorry.



I suggest you put a form to your page with links to the admin panel.

Code: Select all

<form method="post" action="path_to_cute/index.php" target="blank">

<input type="text" name="username">

<input type="password" name="password">

<input type="submit" value="Login">

<input type="hidden" name="action" value="dologin">

</form>

[Heya Im Me]

I'm getting an error that reads:



Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (plugins/latest_comments.php:137) in /cutenews/loginbox.php on line 61

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (plugins/latest_comments.php:137) in /cutenews/loginbox.php on line 67



I'm currently using latest comments plugin and the login box plugin on the same page, is this not at all possible? I mean it logs me in and still shows the recent comments but at the top of the page those errors appear. Can I get rid of them some how?



Thanks for any help! (Note: THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING THIS LOGIN BOX!!!!!!!!! I have been dying for this modification since I first started using CuteNews.ru a long whiles back)

Should be possible. But you have to include the head.php file once. You problably did that twice.

[FI-DD]

Ramon,



I just logged in on your page using test/test and it's working. I was even logged in your forum. I doubt you are achieving this with the help of my plugin. So what did you do to get this working?

[Ramon]

I just use my forum member_database for posting on the website.. The login you see is not attached to my cutenews.ru database..



Here's the trick, I have disabled that only members can post comments, when making a comment you are not allowed to fill in a name, but with a global i get the name which you are logged in with at the forums. For staff members I also have made an account on the cutenews.ru database with the same name, so they will get a password box when they trie to make a comment.



Hope i've been clear at this, hard to explain. If you wan't to I let you view the cutenews.ru admin, so you can see what I have done

Hey Ramon!

Can you explain this a little more in detail? This would have been awesome for my page http://engelsk-fotball.net, do you think it will work on an phpbb2-forum too?



Thanks in advance!

I'm getting this error when I try to log in with a user and pass:



Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/content/s/c/o/scodal/html/embedtube/index.php:5) in /home/content/s/c/o/scodal/html/embedtube/admin/loginbox.php on line 55



I have it like this:

header.php =

Code: Select all

<?php include("admin/head.php"); ?>

<?php include("admin/loginbox.php"); ?>

somewhere later in content:

Code: Select all

<?php include("admin/loginbox.php"); ?>

This is correct isn't it? Do you have any idea what I can check to figure out how to fix this?



Also, how do I create a 'log out' button that directs them back to the sites index.php?

[scottdallas]

Actually, I figured out how to stop generating that error.. but 2 things I'd like in conjunction with this:



1) Log out button

2) A way to include a members list somewhere?

[Saszoo]

Yes, a memberlist would be nice. And especially if the names would link to what they have selected as homepage. Maybe even a feature that only shows members that has registrered themselves with a homepage?

[FI-DD]

What error messages exactly?

[al3loo]

Thank you I see the problem exactly from the code in loginbox.php

Code: Select all

<input type="hidden" name="act" value="dologin">

Just with change the name="act" to name="action" it will work, but its not save the cookie. It must to be login every move I made in my page what shall I do to make it save the cookie or session, because I don't want my user do login like machine ..








Thanks

[FI-DD]

Try changing all occurences of ['act'] to ['action'] in loginbox.php.
