Where to start...
I have a default page (not forum default page) and I want my users to be able to log in from this page. I have made a file called "loginpage.asp" (see bottom of post) its basiclly inc_top.asp with the unneeded code removed. If I am logged into the forum, and call this page up alone in my browser, it works great! It says "you are logged in as ..."
The trouble is that I am trying put this on my default page via an include. When I do so, the page displays that I am not logged in, even tho I AM logged in. All I did was say to include loginpage.asp. Why is it that loginpage.asp work perfect alone, but when I call it into default.asp via an include it doesnt?!?!?!?!?!
I have tried cutting and pasting the code from loginpage.asp directly into default.asp, but it does not recongize that I am logged in. I have even tried deleting the include for /forums/config.asp and /forums/inc_functions.asp from the loginpage.asp and pasting it directly into default.asp
Please help! I am going crazy with this code! This is not all that difficult of an opperation, but it is taking me weeks to get worked out! P-P-P-Please help me!
---loginpage.asp---also the code i pasted directly into default.asp---

Okay, let's see...
You've got a whole lot of stuff going on...way too much.
There are a couple of issues: Primarily, is the logon page inside the same directory as the forum? (From your posted code, I am guessing it is not in the same directory.)
If you're trying to "login to the forums" from outside the directory that contains the forums, the first thing you have to be sure of is that you are using website cookies, not forum cookies. Search the snitz forum for additional info.
Second, your "logon" page is really nothing more than a "holder" for a stripped down version of inc_top.asp (Say to wrap it with your graphics or add additional explanatory text; but the inc_top.asp will still do all the "heavy lifting."
So, if you are trying to setup a website wide login functionality with snitz, first read all the past threads (although many of the most useful ones are now archived...); second, enable website cookies; third, copy inc_top.asp into the toplevel directory where you want to manage logons from, and rename it something else (site_inc_top.asp); fourth, modify your new site_inc_top.asp so that it still points to your original config.asp and inc_functions.asp (just edit the link to point in the right place, don't copy these files!); fifth, create a blank "logon" page that ONLY contains site_inc_top.asp as an include file.
Try it and see what happens....
If it logs you in, and tries to redirect you, you'll know it works. Then you will have to fix up a number of little things like graphic links, and the re-directs (which depends on how you want you site to work); and finally, after it's working, you can edit site_inc_top.asp to take out all the forum links and stuff you don't need--after it is working, of course...
So, let's start over and see if we can get it working. (The key after all is keeping un-logged-in users out, and we haven't talked about that yet....)
Good luck!

Thanks,
Perhaps I should start over, completely. I have a site that has an E-store. I am trying to make it work so that when they log in, they are logged into the forums and the store. I dont want them to have to log in twice, and remeber two seperate passwords. I also want to make it so the main page will allow them to see if they are logged in or not, and allow them to log in if they are not.
Can you please direct me ont he best way to do this? My mind is going crazy trying to figure it out. Should I make it so that when they sign up for the forums, their info and password is also wrote to the stores database? Then how do I go abotu making it so the cookie will also work for the store? PPPPPPPlease help!

Hi,
I am doing basically the same thing you are talking about, I think.
Here is a link to a page where I have this going on (still under development, but the login into Snitz from a non-Snitz page works:
www.rcmadness.com/dev3
When you get there, register for a free account, then, go through the login process.

I've sort out the files as a global log in mod, it's generally the same of your files but seems working  you can find it in the w/code forum.
well, IMHO, if you run a store, you need to consider security more. esp the current version of snitz do not enc data in db, it even store plain password in cookie. This will be fixed soon, check the topic of in bug forum named grand bug. after the fix come out, you also need to ecnrypt user info in the database someway. You may have already done that, but i thouth you'd like to know.
