Vbulletin login box on a non vbulletin page

  #1  
Feb 18th, 2008
I am looking for a script which will allow me to place a vbulletin login box on a non vbulletin page. There are couple of scripts, but they are for older versions. I am using v3.6.8
Does anyone know where to find one for 3.6.8?

The closest I could find was this:
http://forums.clantemplates.com/show...ght=code+login

(offcourse I will ask them permission before using it as I'm not using it on one of their templates)

I tested it and it worked, but I have a problem.

When I'm logged out of my forum I go to the page that I inserted the script in, I then log in, and it redirects me to the forum page, logs me in and redirects me back, just how it should.
I am logged into the forum then, but it doesn't show on the page that I'm logged in, it still shows the login form. So, all we need to do is to tell the script that when the user is logged in, it must replace the login box with this:

Welcome, Deidre.

Having the login form is no problem.
  1. <!-- login form -->
  2. <form action="login.php?do=login" method="post" onsubmit="md5hash(vb_login_password, vb_login_md5password, vb_login_md5password_utf, 0)">
  3.  
  4. <script type="text/javascript" src="clientscript/vbulletin_md5.js?v=370b5h"></script>
  5. <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="3" border="0">
  6. <tr>
  7. <td class="smallfont"><label for="navbar_username">User Name</label></td>
  8. <td><input type="text" class="bginput" style="font-size: 11px" name="vb_login_username" id="navbar_username" size="10" accesskey="u" tabindex="101" value="User Name" onfocus="if (this.value == 'User Name') this.value = '';" /></td>
  9. <td class="smallfont" nowrap="nowrap"><label for="cb_cookieuser_navbar"><input type="checkbox" name="cookieuser" value="1" tabindex="103" id="cb_cookieuser_navbar" accesskey="c" />Remember Me?</label></td>
  10. </tr>
  11.  
  12. <tr>
  13. <td class="smallfont"><label for="navbar_password">Password</label></td>
  14. <td><input type="password" class="bginput" style="font-size: 11px" name="vb_login_password" id="navbar_password" size="10" tabindex="102" /></td>
  15. <td><input type="submit" class="button" value="Log in" tabindex="104" title="Enter your username and password in the boxes provided to login, or click the 'register' button to create a profile for yourself." accesskey="s" /></td>
  16. </tr>
  17. </table>
  18. <input type="hidden" name="s" value="" />
  19. <input type="hidden" name="do" value="login" />
  20. <input type="hidden" name="vb_login_md5password" />
  21.  
  22. <input type="hidden" name="vb_login_md5password_utf" />
  23. </form>
  24. <!-- / login form -->
However, when you start talking about it knowing when you're logged in, and displaying your user information, now you're talking about a dynamic page that pulls information from the database. Since you self-acknowledged you're not a PHP programmer, I would check out vBulletin.org and, more specifically, the vBAdvanced CMPS product. It might be just what you're looking for.
