How to ask credentials before showing index in user SC

[streagle]

We did it. We ripped off the index.php of the staff section, then modified it to post account information to the index.php of the user section. After that we modified the index.php of the user section to redirect if the user hasn't logged in to our custom login page, and when a user logout, to redirect to it again. It was a pain to do without any documentation but with enough poking around we managed to do it.

Glad you got there in the end - I understand that the software is quite complex and being without developer documentation makes it a big task to get into the code, but once you do you should find things fairly logical.

If you have a spare moment, I am sure a lot of people would welcome a quick how-to on achieving the functionality you've added to SupportSuite.

We only want to make it more elegant.
Currently we check if the user has logged in with this:

if (is_null($_SWIFT["user"]["userid"]) && !$_POST && !$session->isloggedin)
{
header('location:login.php');exit;
}

Are there some other means of checking if the user is logged in in the index.php some function or something, because we think this is too bruteforce?

Hi, Jamie.

We sorted this out internally.

Now everything is as I wanted it to be, for a detailed change description see ticket OLN-793215.
