integrating mrbs within smf2

[nose]

Hello,
as I have to integrate mrbs (http://mrbs.sourceforge.net/ [nofollow]) within smf2 I need some help. The goal is to give the auth stuff to smf and let mrbs read out the cookie(s) of smf to authentificate users. The memberstructure of mrbs is quite simple 0=readers, 1= bookers, 2= admin.
So I greenly think the mrbs script has to read the cookie and extract the user and the group compare the rights (ie. groupid9 = 0, ...).
(added the cookie session related mrbs php file)
Any help appreciated.

I tried using ssi.php but failed to get the (premier) group of a member.

// Display  User & groupID
function ssi_ug($output_method = 'echo')
{
   global $context, $txt, $scripturl;

   if ($output_method == 'echo')
   {
      if ($context['user']['is_guest'])
         echo sprintf($txt['welcome_guest'], $txt['guest_title']);
      else
         echo $context['user']['name'] ;
         echo $context['user']['regular_id_group'] ;
   }
   // Don't echo... then do what?! ----$group_id
   else
      return $context['user'];
}

Try using  $user_settings['id_group'] to get a member's primary group.

Thanx for reply,
but doesn't work for this.

Did you add $user_settings to the globals?

[nose]

now I added:

global $smcFunc, $ssi_db_user, $scripturl, $ssi_db_passwd, $db_passwd, $cachedir, $user_settings ;

and

echo $user_settings['id_group'];

but no appropriate result.

Is SSI.php included?

What does a print_r return??

Code Select Expand


echo '<pre>', print_r($user_settings), '</pre>';

I added the piece of code to SSI.php

"echo '<pre>', print_r($user_settings), '</pre>'; " returns "1"

modified:
adding "$user_settings" to the globals and
"echo $user_settings['id_group'] ;" did the thing.    many thanks Kays!

Cool, you're welcome.

I'll mark this as solved then

[nose]

using the function

Code Select Expand


function ssi_ug($output_method = 'string')
{
global $context, $txt, $scripturl, $user_settings, $username, $level ;

if ($output_method == 'string')
{
if ($context['user']['is_guest'])
echo sprintf($txt['welcome_guest'], $txt['guest_title']);
else
$username == $context['user']['name'] ;
$level == $user_settings['id_group'] ;

return $username;
return $level;
}
// Don't echo... then do what?!
else
return $context['user'];
}

I run into new trouble:

Notice: Use of undefined constant string - assumed 'string' in /srv/www/web315/html/forum/SSI.php  on line 58
(this line: "welcome guest ..." - if nobody is logged in --- nothing if someone is logged in)
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /srv/www/web315/html/forum/Settings.php:1) in /srv/www/web315/html/forum/respla/index.php on line 36

line 36 is "header("Location: $redirect_str");"
in line 58 of SSI.php I wanted to shut off error handling "$ssi_on_error_method = string;" because fatal_error handling conflicted with the same of the mrbs.
How to manage this?
