[In Progress] HOW TO integrate my site with XMB
Hi,
I was wondering how to show the header info in pages other than the forum's.
Also use a restriction for pages only admins and moderators can access. |

The best method would be to use the custom page hack.
With the hack, you can create pages that have the forum header/footer so that they look integrated with your forum.

The mod can be downloaded from the downloads section, and is currently only available for 1.9.5.
I believe this should work with 1.9.6, and as it is a stand alone page it will not break your message board. The worst that can happen is that the
page don't work.
How much do you know about XMB?
What about PHP?
The reason I ask is that it is fairly easy to create restrictions on custom pages.

In XMB you can use X_MEMBER, X_STAFF, X_ADMIN, X_SADMIN to check what status members are.
EG:
| Code: | if (!X_ADMIN) {
error('No Access');
} else {
Page contents here.
} |
error() <-- is an XMB function that displays the error message in a box.

So you want pages outside the forum directory to integrate with the forum?
What forum info do you wish to show on these page(s)?
How far have you got?
What errors, if any, do you get?

Well, I did all the tutorial said. I log into the forum and the Last Visit info and the log out/ control panel links are fine there. When I load the
page outside of the forum directory the Last Visit info prints as Never and the other links don't show. |

I would also like to restrict pages outside the forum directory using the status of the logged user. for example, if its a moderator he can enter the
page. |

Correct.
X_STAFF is for Mods / Admins.

Can you send me a link to one of the pages?
Use u2u if you don't wish it to be public.

Try editing your call_xmb.php file:
Find Code:
| Code: | | define('ROOT', './forums/'); |
Replace Code With:
| Code: | | define('ROOT', '../forum/'); |

Did your username show before you changed the file?
Do you get any error messages?

I'm assuming you have replaced mysite.com with your actual domain name?

I found this in the header.php, can this be what is causing the problem???
| Code: |
// Create cookie-settings
if ( !isset($full_url) || empty($full_url) || $full_url == 'FULLURL' ) {
exit('<b>ERROR: </b><i>Please fill the $full_url variable in your config.php!</i>');
} else {
$array = parse_url($full_url);
if (substr($array['host'], 0, 9) == 'localhost' || preg_match("/^([0-9]{1,3}\.){3}[0-9]{1,3}$/i", $array['host'])) {
$cookiedomain = '';
}else{
$cookiedomain = str_replace('www', '', $array['host']);
}
if(!isset($array['path'])) {
$array['path'] = '/';
}
$cookiepath = ($array['path'] == '/') ? ('') : ($array['path']);
}

Well, I'm not sure why it wouldn't work.
If it's loading the header.php file without errors, then it should show the information.
Try adding: to your test file in the other directory.
