SM n00b and in a sticky position

(1/1)

JAAulde:
Hi gang,

I have never used SM before and have a project in which I need to incorporate SM into a new website.  The site will have pages other than just the SM stuff, and I need for the login to SM to be the same as the login to these other pages.

So if a user logs into one of the other pages, they will also be logged in at the forum and vice-versa.

I guess I need to know what files to include and methods to call on the pages I create to determine if the person viewing the page is logged in and, if so, what their username is.

If a user is NOT logged in, I would like to display a form for them to log in with.  I know how to handle this part by pointing to SM's index PHP with the proper action.  But how do I redirect the user back to the custom page from which they logged in after validation rather than to the SM index page.

I have been digging through the SM code and reading what I can, but am under the gun and can't seem to figure it out.

I appreciate any help or links to other threads where this is discussed.

Thanks!
Jim

Excellent!  I knew there had to be a FAQ or something...

Just what I needed.  Thanks for helping a n00b who wasn't capable enough to find the FAQ.  :-\
