Re: ign_password_protect
feragnoli – what versions (ign_pass_protect and zem_contact_reborn) are you using?

Re: ign_password_protect
zem_contact_reborn is 4.0.3.19 and ign_password_protect is 0.5b4
I’ll give a little background about what I’m doing:
user will subscribe with mem_self_register;
if able to log-in they will see either the contact form or forms to add content (mem_moderation…).
through the contact form they’ll be able to either send a message or subscribe to a mailing list managed py the postmaster plugin.
what was that again…?

Re: ign_password_protect
OK, that should be enough for me to recreate. I’ll take a look.

- How do I use this plugin acheive a self-registered (txp-user, no rights)?
- Also, I’d love to be able to hack this plugin to create (upon success of #1) an image, file, and article category of the same name of the registered user?
Any help is appreciated.

Re: ign_password_protect
I think, so far, you have to use mem_self_register to get the users in the system.

Re: ign_password_protect
BTW: How would you create a new category via PHP? Is that a simple matter?

Re: ign_password_protect
depends on whether you want to nest or not. It’s not a bad process, though.

Re: ign_password_protect
Ok figured out how to use mem_self_register, which is great.

I’d just want a category “userName” to be placed under a “users” parent category.

Re: ign_password_protect
hello igner, I was wondering if it is possible to create a custom login form in order to customize the “action” field in the html form.
I’m trying to hide part of articles content from not registered users on a site using the MLP plugin.
that plugin generates a url of this kind: mysite.com/language/section/article
the form produced by ign_password_protect has an action value like: section/article (that’s probably why I get logged out after submitting zem_contact_forms too…).
is somehow possible to set an action like: current url or self?
hope you have the answer..!
thank you for your work.

Re: ign_password_protect
actually, the login form does use the current URI, minus any query string, as the target. I’m not really familiar with the MLP plugin – can you point me to a link, and I’ll take a look.

Re: ign_password_protect
yeah, I meant link to the plugin; I was just being lazy and didn’t want to have to track it down myself. Thanks…I’ll take a look at how it’s doing the rewrite.

Re: ign_password_protect
hello Igner, I have a question: how does the plugin check the current user?
what it happens, apparently, is that the log-in procedure is valid only for a direct form submission.
example: I log in on page mysite.com/section/something and if I go one directory up to mysite.com/section I have to log-in again when I come back on mysite.com/section/something.
Is the validation not session-related? doesn’t it set any cookie?
thank you.

Re: ign_password_protect
hello, again.
are you still following this plugin? I’m not sure whether that used to happen with older versions of it.
Yet, at any page reload, the plugin logs me out, even just reloading without anything appended to the actual URI.
maybe has to do with the no-cache?
