SSI welcome not working?

[iExotic]

Okay guys, so i've tried many times and can't seem to get this down. Ik you can use the ssi_welcome to check if a user is logged in, butt hat does not seem to work. I tried it on a complete new forums, and it was glitchy still. So is there anyway to fix/or other ways to do this.

Thanks for reading.

What are you doing? Are you getting an error? What is the error your getting?

You need to make sure that the below line is added to the page you want to use the ssi_welcome() function on.

Code Select Expand

include_once("forum/SSI.php");

I'm not getting any errors. The ssi_welcome(); just does not work.. other functions work such as the recent post, boardnews ect..
Heres what i have for the welcome

Code Select Expand

<?php
require("/home/rune/public_html/smf/SSI.php");
ssi_welcome();
?>

Try:

Code Select Expand

<?php
require("/home/rune/public_html/smf/SSI.php");
echo ssi_welcome();
?>

Thats all the function does, you need to look at the $context variable to check if the user is logged in.
