Thank you!! This is exactly what I wanted to know!!

Can this plugin be modified so the use of this tag: <txp:ign_usr_online /> can show the names of the commentators rather those logged in on admin side? Also, have those commentator names be linked to their sites.

I can’t get the logout link to go to my root page with return_path used within 0.5b9 ???

<txp:ign_logout_link return_path=”/vg”>abmelden</txp:ign_logout_link>

thanks

I’m having little troubles :)

I use the plugin to have privilege levels across my site. I programmed several functions myself to include them into txp. What I now needed was the Id of the current logged in user in my function.

I tried the following:

<txp:ign_if_logged_in privs=“1,3,4” >

<txp:php>
$user=<txp:ign_user_info />; //for sql_query SELECT user_id FROM ign_users WHERE name=$user
include(“php/article_show.php”);
</txp:php>

<txp:else />

<p class=“fehler”>Sie haben keine Rechte diese Funktion zu benutzen.</p>

</txp:ign_if_logged_in>

the problem is that the txp tag won’t be interpreted which I wanted to use to get the user_id from the ign_users table.

How can I transfer the ID of the currently logged user to my included php function??

I use your cookie now to get the user_id :) … still no forwarding with return_path ;)

markusfalk · 2008-05-05 17:28:26

hi … it’s me again ;)

do you think it would somehow be possible to inlcude the users privilege into the cookie so that something like <txp:ign_user_info type=“priv”/> would then output the set privilege level

:) thx

No need to add it into cookie, as it already is stored inside the database. Actually all info is pull from the db, based on the cookie. In example the priv level can be output by:

<txp:php>
	global $ign_user, $ign_user_db, $txp_user, $ign_levels, $ign_levels;
	$name = ($ign_user) ? $ign_user : $txp_user;
	$privs = safe_field('privs', $ign_user_db, "name='$name'"); // Now $privs is number
	echo $ign_levels[$privs]; // Now it should be text, based on $ign_levels inside the plugin
</txp:php>

Hello all,
I am an extremely new user to Textpattern. I am still trying to get my head around the forms and tags. I am designing a member website which will be password protected. My idea is to have a front welcome page, a join page, about page, and picture page unprotected. In the navbar I would have a sign-in form which would give the viewer access to the Members Home page, and five or so other sections. Someone recommended ign_password_protect so I have it installed.

I apologize for asking such a basic question, I have searched high an low for a “Dummies Guide” to get ign_password_protect to work. I have read the info page several times but I just don’t get it. I figure if I can get this piece to work, I can start designing the content and work on my tag/form training as I go. If I can’t get it to work, I would be concerned about building the site.

Can someone give me simple steps to get this working? Can this plugin be setup to protect entire sections in TXP? Am I working with the right plugin? My other option was to have all my open content in flat files and link to a password protected install of TXP. Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers,
Ian

@idoremus

Welcome to Textpattern. I’ve been using it for more than a year and it does get easier over time. The ign_password_protect plug-in can be used in discreet locations throughout your site. For example, if you have a template page for your photos, you can put the content that needs to be protected between the {txp:ign_if_logged_in} and {/txp:ign_if_logged_in} tags with an optional {txp:else /} tag that shows up when the person is not logged in.

This tag alone logs in users that are added in the Admin section of the backend (writers, publishers, etc.), so if you need to have members register themselves, you may need to add the mem_self_register plug-in.

I admit, I haven’t quite figured it all out myself, but I’m currently working on a client site that requires membership access. Unfortunately, the documentation for this plug-in is a little scant and needs more examples, but all these plug-in authors have busy lives outside of this community, so patience is sometimes required.

If you want to stay in touch, I can help walk you through as I get it up and running myself.

Gary,

Thank you for the help, it makes sense. I would be interested in hearing how your project turns out.

I took a look at your website, I love the clean design — very easy to navigate.

Hello,

the plugin doesn’t work for me on my MAMP development server. I get authorized, but there is no cookie set and every reload (form interaction, link) forces me to reenter my credentials. There are no TXP errors, even in Debug Mode. (cookies are allowed, credentials are right)

Any Idea?

Thanks for your help,
Eric

@yatil.de – how are you accessing the site? by IP or a URL?

By URL: http://localhost:9100/

Edit:
Version 0.4.2d works like a charm and does everything I need at the moment.

ah – yes. I can see where the fix I added to address multiple top-level domains might have an issue with that url. Hmm. I’ll look at options to improve that.
