You misunderstood, I want to include it....but I need a simplified version of punbb's common because I get compatibility issues...

Im not trying to combine the two or anything

I want to have the common included and stuff, but there is some extra stuff that I really dont need...is there any suggestions on sliming it down for minimum use, DB queries is all I want...

Creating a new common is all I know what to do, I dont know what can be cut and stuff...

The reason why I ask is because I am having some compatibility problems with some software [non-punbb], and I tracked it down to this...so any suggestions?

Haha, right when I get 1.2 workin the way I want it tongue

Its probably better to edit profile.php to remove the style selection, Ludo has an easy way to do it but it will still leave the section; delete it from the profile.php for a clean look.

I dont know what you mean by user list, the online members or the actual user list.  To remove the online list, edit the main template.  I cant remember the file with the Nav stuff in it though

nevermind, I rewrote the code to a different statement that works

<?php

define('PUN_TURN_OFF_MAINT', 1);
define('PUN_QUIET_VISIT', 1); 

define('PUN_ROOT','systems/forums/');
require PUN_ROOT.'include/common.php';

if (!defined('PUN'))
    exit('config.php doesn\'t exist or is corrupt. Please run install.php to install PunBB first.');

if ($pun_user['is_guest'])
    {
        $style = $pun_config['o_default_style'];
    } else {
        $style = $pun_user["style"];
    }
?>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="systems/forums/style/<?php echo $style ?>.css">
</head>

so if anyone else needs help with it, there is a method that works big_smile

I found another post on the subject, but the code really didnt work...

How do you get the style from the forum to apply to the main site? The code I have now only gets the default, it cant tell if the user is logged in and has a preference...

here is the code I use

<?php

define('PUN_TURN_OFF_MAINT', 1); 
define('PUN_QUIET_VISIT', 1); 

define('PUN_ROOT','systems/forums/'); 
require PUN_ROOT.'include/common.php';

if (!defined('PUN'))
    exit('config.php doesn\'t exist or is corrupt. Please run install.php to install PunBB first.');

// Now we determine what style we should use
$style = (isset($cur_user)) ? $cur_user['style'] : $pun_config['o_default_style'];

?>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="systems/forums/style/<?php echo $style ?>.css">
</head>

Again, all it gets is the default theme loaded...but not the logged in user's preference

So far I have only tested in IE, but thanks for telling me now that Firefox/Mozilla is screwed up. Ohh and the RSS feed deal...I dont really know

The list is part of a news system I have running underneath, I really do not count it as CMS.  Im working on a nice little article system [or CMS].

But the site is a combination of homegrown and GPL software.  If I do use someone else's software, I do a lot of manipulation to it, not just the templates, such as the login box for the forums.


Thanks for the feedback!

[its actually http://www.Jakelshark.com but the DNS isnt setup right]


I got a pretty decent theme going on, or at least I think.  Im still trying to setup the CSS color scheme similar to how Rick has it...but for now I like it.

And just saying, I am a bit of a design n00b, so if you have any good advice...feel free smile

Hi, Im working on an easy to use script that will put a log in box on the main page.

I codded everything, and I am going to post the 0.1 release in this thread...

The only thing that is keeping it from being perfect is the logout function. I would like to be able to specify [by URL] where a user will be redirected after logging out.  You can do it with the login form, but I dont know how to get it to work with the logout...

Anyways, here is the script...just save it all as includes.php and put it in the directory of your main site files

<?php

/***************************************************************************************************
Simple login script made for punbb 1.2
Version: 0.1
Release Date: Jan 26, 2005

How to install this script...in just three steps!
First do a simple change on line 49

   define('PUN_ROOT', 'XXXXXX');

 XXXXXX is the location of your forum system relevant to the location of this file
 example

    define('PUN_ROOT', 'systems/forums/');


Change this bit of code [line 50] to the place you want a logging in user to be redirected to
    
    $return = "URL OF REDIRECTION"

example
    $return = "http://localhost/index.php"


Third step
Insert this code into the page you wish to have this log in functionality
*notes: take out the extra space at the ";? >"
        this is assuming that the includes file is in same location as target file

    <?php include "includes.php";? > 

Make sure the page is saved as a .php and it should work fine :D


Release Notes:
No lang pack support yet. Of course there are only a handful of words that would need changing.
I just have the page refresh to log in, no redirect screen...some may or may not like that.


**************************************************************************************************/


// Two Variables to set
define('PUN_ROOT', 'XXXXXX');
$return = "URL OF REDIRECTION";

// Connect to the system and create a simple trash variable [for easier form coding]
require PUN_ROOT.'include/common.php';
$root = PUN_ROOT;

// Check if guest, if so do a log in, otherwise great user
if ($pun_user['is_guest'])
    {
      // Below is the log in form for a guest, also including links for registration and to email password
      ?>
          <form id="login" method="post" action="<?php echo $root ?>login.php?action=in" onsubmit="return process_form(this)">
            <input type="hidden" name="form_sent" value="1" />

          </form>
      <?php
    } else {
       // The data to show to a member. This shows a welcome, then links for the profile and logout stuff
       ?>
          <br>
          <font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="1">Greetings <b><?php echo $pun_user['username'];?></b>!<br>
          <a href="<?php echo $root ?>profile.php?id=<?php echo $pun_user["id"] ?>">Profile</a> | <a href="<?php echo $root ?>login.php?action=out&id=<?php echo $pun_user["id"] ?>">Logout</a>

i was looking around forever for a forum system that was simple, clean, and fast....and i finally found one big_smile
