Is your include on the1st line? It must be in first, before anything.

I've put the ssi_recentposts function on my web site page and it's working corrctly.

The problem seems to be that when members go to the forum the "Show unread posts since last visit" function shows no new when there are new posts.

Any idea why?

TIA

umiya · « **Reply #27 on:** October 17, 2004, 06:49:42 AM »

any way to make it so that the pool fucntion is visible no matter what....and you can even vote??

i wa u sing my own poll script but thought hey why not use the ssi stuff....but iv come to find out that u cant see the poll if ur not logged in

Anguz · « **Reply #28 on:** October 17, 2004, 08:04:41 AM »

It should be shown to guest visitors if that permission is set in your admin area.

umiya · « **Reply #29 on:** October 17, 2004, 08:35:00 AM »

wher is this part in admin panel...only thing i saw was to diable/enable it and to show old polls as topics

edit-i found it and it is set for guest to view polls.......

I'm using SSI (I use ssi_welcome)on my site already, but I'm having problems with this:

Code: [Select]

<?php
require("forums/ssi.php");

if ($context[&#39;user&#39;][&#39;is_guest&#39;])
{
   echo
   &#39;<h5>Access Denied</h5>
   We are sorry guest, it seems you dont have premission to view these downloads.&#39;;
}
else
{
   echo
   &#39;<h5>Welcome &#39;, $context[&#39;user&#39;][&#39;name&#39;], &#39;!</h5>
   Here are your downloads:&#39;;
}
?>

This code only give me "Welcome ! Here are your downloads:", it doesn't matter if i'm loged in or not I still get that. Does this not work with 1.0 RC1?

Elissen · « **Reply #31 on:** October 19, 2004, 01:45:26 PM »

Strange, that script does work for me on RC2 (don't have a RC1 running anymore, but it should also work on RC1).

Put

Code: [Select]

error_reporting(E_ALL); right below the <?php before the require to see if anything goes wrong and your server hides it. I had to change ssi.php to SSI.php tough (Linux server, case sensitive)

I upgraded to RC2 last night to see if that helped and it didn't.

I also made sure I was using SSI.php and it looks like I am. What I don't get is all the other ssi functions work, I tested almost all of them with no errors. When I use "error_reporting(E_ALL);" I get....

Elissen · « **Reply #33 on:** October 20, 2004, 02:26:07 PM »

Then it doesn't see the context var. Try this:

Code: [Select]

<?php
require("forums/SSI.php");

global $context;

if ($context[&#39;user&#39;][&#39;is_guest&#39;])
{
 echo
 &#39;<h5>Access Denied</h5>
 We are sorry guest, it seems you dont have premission to view these downloads.&#39;;
}
else
{
 echo
 &#39;<h5>Welcome &#39;, $context[&#39;user&#39;][&#39;name&#39;], &#39;!</h5>
 Here are your downloads:&#39;;
}
?>

What PHP version is running on your server btw?

quake101 · « **Reply #34 on:** October 20, 2004, 03:59:03 PM »

Woah, It works when you global $context. I didn't think of that one.

btw, the server is running PHP Version 4.3.4

Elissen · « **Reply #35 on:** October 20, 2004, 07:10:16 PM »

Hmm, mine is running 4.3.9-1. Probaly some configuration difference then. Anyway, it works

Kender · « **Reply #36 on:** November 10, 2004, 08:31:43 PM »

how would i get it to say,,

Welcome: {username}

without the you haev X messages X unread messages

Kender · « **Reply #37 on:** November 10, 2004, 10:47:19 PM »

resolved, needed to global $context;

ebsq · « **Reply #38 on:** November 29, 2004, 05:53:55 AM »

I think this is a relavant question (and I tried to find the answer elsewhere...)...

What about the other way around... I see how you can use SSI to manage access to your site - but what if you already have an extensive database with user information and want to use it's data to manage logins (that doesn't make sense... I want to grant access to SMF via my data/login/etc... is this a common need and has anyone addressed it?) Currently we are using YABB and we have to manage two sets of logins/passwords - not to mention how confusing it is to our members. (Obviously this is my problem, not YABB/SMFs... but it would be nice if there were a simple solution... I can think of a few difficult ones)

Thanks... love what is going on here... am holding out for the final release of version 1!

Obviously, you can't use SSI.php to do what you're asking. It's a separate topic all together.

There aren't many files you need to modify to change authentication, but I would suggest either:
- mirroring the login information in the members table SMF uses, and when the password is changed in SMF update it on your side.
- just using SMF's authentication and porting over the username and password data.

This is because the members table information is used for a lot more than simply the username and password.
