So I have coppermine bridged with punbb.  I want to have a login box at the top so I wrote one into theme.php but I am having a problem with the loginbox not being able to fetch user data from the shared cookie...i think it is because 'global $pun_user' is being defined from within a function and therefore is not global (scope issue).  I posted my problem in more specifics on the punbb forums and this is the most useful reply I got:

"If you're bridged then it would be easier to use Coppermine's login constant USER_ID. If that is 0 then the user is not logged in, otherwise it has the punbb userid."

So here is the code of my theme.php file at the moment:

I have no knowledge of how to use coppermines USER_ID constant.  How should change this code so that it is using USER_ID?

ANy help would be greatly apreciated.

Cheers

Nick

try instead of
if ($pun_user['is_guest']) {

if (!USER_ID) {

you can USER_NAME too (for your else clause)

cool thanks I'll give this a try later....do I need to define or include anything? for this to work (like I do with PUNBB) or will it just work?

it's a constant... no need to include anything for that to work

Hi its working great thanks.....just can't figure out the USER_NAME use.  Just syntax I think.

here is the code of my else statement:
//    else say that the user is logged in as 'pun_user'
else {
echo "Logged in as: (USER_NAME)
<br>Click <a href=\"/pun/login.php?action=out&id=(USER_NAME)&location_out=".$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']."\">here</a> to log out.</div>";
}

I've tried using [] or {} or ''

none seem to work.

Cheers
Nick

The user_id works great though

It's a constant, as suggested above. Correct syntax would be//    else say that the user is logged in as 'pun_user'
else {
    echo 'Logged in as: ';
    echo USER_NAME;
    echo '<br />Click <a href="/pun/login.php?action=out&id='.USER_NAME.'&amp;location_out='.$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'].'">here</a> to log out.</div>';
}

Thanks guys all working now :)
