Hi, I'm hoping to use Snitz as a way for registered members to write comments / reviews / that kinda stuff on my website..
However, I won't be using Snitz for the actual comments etc, it's not going into the snitz forum database. I just want the forum members to log into the forum and when they see the review page (which is elsewhere on the site), they are able to add a comment - if they aren't logged in, they can't.

How do I do that (just the checking to see if visitor has logged in the forum, display their name etc)?

Don't know if it will quite suit your needs but have a look for the Guestbook Mod over at SnitzBitz; if nothing else it will get you on the right track and you can post back with any queries about enhancements, etc..

I'd prefer not to use the guestbook mod though.

All I need is to be shown (on a blank asp page) what includes I have to male that checks to see if a visitor has logged into the forum, and just a response.write of their name.. anyone help please?

An easy way to do this is to add a couple of lines (shown in red below) to the chkUser function in inc_func_common:


	if rsCheck.BOF or rsCheck.EOF or not(ChkQuoteOk(fName)) or not(ChkQuoteOk(fPassword)) then
		MemberID = -1
		chkUser = 0 '##  Invalid Password
		if strDBNTUserName <> "" and chkCookie = 1 then
			Call ClearCookies()
			strDBNTUserName = ""
		end if		
	else
		MemberID = rsCheck("MEMBER_ID")
		
		if (rsCheck("MEMBER_ID") & "" = fAuthor & "") and (cLng(rsCheck("M_LEVEL")) <> 3) then 
			chkUser = 1 '## Author
		else
			select case cLng(rsCheck("M_LEVEL"))
				case 1
					chkUser = 2 '## Normal User
				case 2
					chkUser = 3 '## Moderator
				case 3
					chkUser = 4 '## Admin
				case else
					chkUser = cLng(rsCheck("M_LEVEL"))
			end select
		end if

	Session("svUser")=fName         'username
	Session("sviUserID")=MemberID        'id 	 

	end if



then, if they are logged you can use the values stored in the session vars on other pages.

you could also consider the site integration mod.
