Hi guys,

If I dont log in the portal and login the forum it doesnt show me as logged in when I return to the portal.

Also if I login the forum it tells me I dont have admin rights. If I login thru the portal then it is all as it should be.

I think I have missed something that ties the forum login back to the portal login.

I have phpnuke 6.0
phpBB2 2.0.6
and your forum reg hack.

Thanks,
John

No you haven't missed anything. I'm investigating it, but for some reason, the Forum loggin is not being transfered to the Nuke side, but if you loggin on the Nuke side, then everything is fine.
This has been ongoing. The only solution now is to REMOVE the Forum login and only use Nuke's. The only other solution is to point the Forum's loggin to Nuke's, thus eliminating the Forum loggin, but leaving the link...just change the link... :?

How do you remove the forum login from the bottom of the forum page? :roll:

Nuke 6.0
phpbb2.0.6
Dark Blue theme

P.S Thanx for the great work you guys are doing.

Look for this in the index_body.tpl file

<form method="post" action="{S_LOGIN_ACTION}">
  <table width="100%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1" border="0" class="forumline">
	<tr> 
	  <td class="catHead" height="28"><a name="login"></a><span class="cattitle">{L_LOGIN_LOGOUT}</span></td>
	</tr>
	<tr> 
	  <td class="row1" align="center" valign="middle" height="28"><span class="gensmall">{L_USERNAME}: 
		<input class="post" type="text" name="username" size="10" />
		{L_PASSWORD}: 
		<input class="post" type="password" name="password" size="10" />
		 {L_AUTO_LOGIN} 
		<input class="text" type="checkbox" name="autologin" />
		 
		<input type="submit" class="mainoption" name="login" value="{L_LOGIN}" />
		</span> </td>
	</tr>
  </table>
</form>

I think if you remove that entire block of code..that will do it...Make sure you backup that file first before you edit it just in case it goes wrong.

youll also want to remove the login link in the menu bar up top.

access your overall_header.tpl and find this code or something like it (depends on your theme):

{L_REGISTER}</span>

remove the whole register line. that should work. :wink:

If guest posting isn't allowed on the forums, wont they either have to be restricted to registered users on the nuke side, or modify the script that directs guests to login on the forum side back to nuke?

Does that make sense?

im kinda lost there iaco :?

I thought that might not make sense, sorry about that.

You give permissions(posting rights etc) to users in the admin cp of the forums. I don't allow guest posting, but I allow guests to view some of the forums (not all). If a guest tries to post, they get a message saying something along the lines that they don't have permission or only registerd users can post and they can register here.

In that case, wouldn't you have to change the link that is displayed to take you back to the Nuke login? Or make the forum module only accessible to registered viewers? Otherwise you are still going to end up with people registering on the phpbb side instead of the nuke side.
