UBB.Developers Forums UBB.classic V5 Mod Questions Logon System <-------- someone requested

First, i would like to thankz RangerRob for your add-on.



your code showed:

sub ProcessEdit {
print<THIS IS JUST A BUNCH OF UNNECESSARY HTML CRAP!

mainHTML;
}


change it to:


sub ProcessEdit {
insert Ultimate.cgi here
}


hope that will help. if not, i'll then insert the logon.cgi into the Ultimate.cgi . Kat - try to do the above, see if it's work.

NOTED:

take these out the Ultimate.cgi:



and on the top of the logon.cgi, change all the require to:

require "UltBB.setup";
require "Date.pl";
require "mods.file";
require "Styles.file";
require "cookie-lib.pl";
require "ubb_library.pl";

HOPE THAT HELP. I DIDN'T TEST IT.
(if this won't work, i'll insert the login.cgi in the Ultimate.cgi)

Thanks for the thanks Anonymous, although I think we should all be thanking you really for making the thing in the first place!
Also thanks for correcting my instructions to Kat, I think I was going cross-eyed or something when I wrote them! LOL
So this is how you get your 76 posts then, huh? You post in multiples of 4!

sorry guyz, but i didn't mean to posted 4 replies at a time. the reason i got 4 posts because after i posted the first one, i didn't saw it so i started to posted a second, third, and until fourth...still haven't seen the replies so i gave up(stop post). i didn't know that all 4 posts were on. sorry -


if you're a moderator of this board, go ahead and delete it.

After reading all of the posts in this topic, I'm a bit confused. I very much like the concept of the log-in script, but Anonymous could you please post a somewhat final version of the script with the add-ons you all implemented? Just so it is clearer for me.

I am thinking of releasing version 2.0! Version 2.0 may have something like:


- Log Out Funtion
- Frame / NonFrame Funtion
- Redirect Funtion
- Admin and Moderator Only Funtion
- Greetings to User in Graphic
- Bann User Funtion
- Footer / Header Funtion
- Protect Your Admin Funtion
- Register Funtion (if needed)

anything else that you would like to add on?

Hmm.. I can't get this baby to work. I'd love to have it workable where I could use it as a login for my guestbook script as well. So they would share the same member list.

I get a 500 error, and I used the text file (no space between the | |), uploaded it in ASCII, and also made sure my paths were correct to the required files. Although I don't have a cookie-lib.pl for some reason. Could that be crashing the whole script?

help!

check if your server use #!/usr/bin/perl or #!/usr/local/bin/perl and chmod the file to 755.

Check if there is a line near the top of the file saying
If there is then you need to:
A) Get cookielib.pl
B) Delete the require statement (that could be bad though)

Just a thought

I was wondering if this hack would work for a log-on placed on the main forums page. Many of our users travel and use different computers to access our site. This hack seems like it may be able to use the same cookie or is there another way of doing what I need?

Wow!
I am glad to see yet another one of my sugestions implemented.

This script is great!

------------------
I long for a friend more intelligent than me

Umm...i may be asking a stupid question, but HOW do i get this to protect my index.html page?

Sorry. I cant edit my posts. Says i am trying to hack the topic forum.

Anyways, i was gonna say, When the next version is out (hope soon ), i want the registration option.

I, for one, am very interested in the latest version of this hack --- I'd get lost trying to implement all of the nice additions to the original hack...

Great work!!!


RobRJ

So where is the final of this script? Too many discussions make me confused.

Hey Anonymous....

in that version 2 could you put a "mark forum as read"?? My busy board could use a feature like this. I have traffic that sits all day long, reading from top to bottom and then back to the top to find the latest posts.....

that doesn't have anything to do with logon

i have modified it a little so now you have to login everytime you enter close your browser
http://y2bne1.homeip.net/cgi-bin/Ultimate.cgi
(site is not always up)

YES! this is what's missing from UBB!!!
How else are people gonna get recognized when they enter UBB... The inbox thing doesn't work, the greeting doesn't work.
It's kinda' stupid that one would have to post something just to get recognized by the system. Not all people would want to post everytime the cookie don't get recognized.

This (nonexistent) login is really bringning down the versatility of UBB... Just have a look at UltraBoard... thos guys have a login system that not only work's it can also shuttle users to those forums that they are allowed to see!!!

I'm not saying that I prefer UltraBoard over UBB but in my latest installation a login system as excellent as the UltraBoard one would really help!!

Anonymous, Thanks for a great beginning!!

Yes yes yes! Can anyone tell me how to do this:

Hi,
Can any body give us the full script with the whole changes ?

Please, please, please e-mail me (using the hack on this board) when you get a polished version of this hack finished. I've been looking for something like this everywhere and several competing boards already have it. If done right, this hack would make UBB better than anything else out there for my purposes.

Can someone please post the fixes to the logon system. It has javascript problems and someone has mentioned that they have fixed it and added additional features to the hack. It would be nice to use the program with the corrections. Thanks, -Morbius

YES! this would be nice!

Hey Anonymous and Rosemyths, how come both your server's are down, is it a permanent thing or just temporary?

just temporary

For some reason Im missing the cookie-lib.pl file? I know another person mentioned this on this thread. I removed that line and everything seems to be working fine. If I did something wrong let me know.

Im using 5.45c. Would love to see the finished hack, I can't freaking wait!

Hi Mod or admin or Member,
I did read about logon system so its not work for me so..i need someone who make text for intruction with final version for logon.txt.
Anyone can make logon.txt for final version without bug?

Thank you
Be COOL man.

This hack does not work for everyone obviously. Maybe you should post a zipped up logoon.cgi that is working

I agree with Nevex. why mod, admin did not help us ubbhack for Logon system. I expect mod and admin reply as fast not take 2days or more day. its not good job!

Well, since nobody responds to any requests, I've uploaded login.txt at http://infobrowser.net/login.txt
I have fixed some bugs like the one that didn't display headers & footers... and some other ones, I don't remember which... but anyway this works on my v5.45a board...
sorry 'bout the html changes in the file, if you dont like the colors on the form buttons, just delete the style html.

If you want the cgi-lib.pl goto http://infobrowser.net/cgi-lib.txt

Well I hope that the author of this will continue to develop this excellent hack.

Have fun!

Hello everyone,


I haven't got any extra time to continues working on the final script, and i am really sorry about that. I know that everyone are waiting for the final script to release. Once again, i WILL continues working on it until i'm really make it a FINAL script.

Sorry all.


My new AIM is behindweb, you can contact me anytime if you have any questions or comment about my script.

Could someone simple post a small hack to call the login.cgi in Ultimate.cgi?
