Codezwiz >> Forums >> General PHP Nuke Help >> PHP Login Script Sessions

Hi everyone,

New to the forum.

I have been searching high and low for a script that will work with PHP-Nuke. I have made probably 6 different scripts that will work with the MD5 password encryption but will not register the session variables. Which means that when you submit your information on this initial "splash page" and it verifies your user name and password, it will redirect you to the PHPnuke site as a guest and won't actually log you in.

I am wondering if anyone knows of a pre-site login script for a PHPnuke site/database?

Any help would be most appreciated.

You should be able to send the username and password into the Your_Account module from any form on your server.

<form method="POST" action="modules.php?name=Your_Account">
<input type="hidden" name="op" value="login" />
<p>Username: <input type="text" name="username" size="30" /></p>
<p>Password: <input type="password" name="user_password" size="30" /></p>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Login" />
</form>

wow. That was so simple? Thank you very much.

Alright, I have a new problem.

Like my first post, I am trying something similiar accept it pertains to the actual user registration. Which path should my form submit the new information to in order to trigger the PHPNuke registration process?

You have to pass the "op" through the form.

For new user registration:

I added that in and am still unable to make it function properly. Here is the code I am using. I apologize for all the additional formatting code.

Change this line:

Ah thanks, I didn't see this until today but I did get it working. Turns out the version of phpnuke I am using doesn't log it as "new_user" but just "new user". Thats all I had to change!

Now for my next issue lol.

Basically I am trying to make it so that unless you are logged in you cannot see PHPNuke at all. Everything is going to be managed from just html pages. So right now I have a splash page with a login form, which links to a disclaimer/registration page and a lost password page. All of these work but they link into PHPnuke no matter what when submitted.

Is there a way to have it so that when something is entered incorrectly or say when someone registers they are re-linked to a page explaining they will receive an email or an error page. Which would then redirect them to the initial login/splash page.

Ugh, this is hard to explain.

Unless you make your own signup page that just enters there information into the database your going to have to use the Your Account module.. which means they will have to see the site.
