Hi,
is possible use the php login extension to protect a "phpbb3" forum?
I need use the forum to exchange information with only few people, so i prefer not use the registration field of forum. 
Thanks |

Thanks Dav, you are the best.
Just yesterday night i study the code generated by DHTML and i try a solution like your reply.
It's very usefull.
You can see the result at this page:

a provvisory uid is "pippo" and password is "pluto".
thanks again

Testa,
you forgot a file:
1- write a login page (with the login extension)
2- write the secureindex page (with the SecurePage extension and setup users)
3- copy the code contained in the "secureindex" page on the very-top code of the index.php page of the forum
4- copy 2 files (php-login_Extension1checkLogin.php and php-secure-index_Extension1inc_security.php, names can be different)
the login page will call the "checkLogin" page and if correct this will call the "secureIndex" so both are important
5- eventually copy all the generated files into the same folder of the index.php file |

Thanks Joneq.
Phpbb has a lot of groups managment and identity, but i need of something less complicated. I need a page for protect the access to phpbb forum with a password, so in phpbb i don't need to register user and manage login.
It's a request of a friend for his site...
Dav, please help me to understand: wich piece of page i need? Phpbb is based on an index.php page that is totally accessible.
I've tried to put a string at the top of index.php page for include the "SecureIndex_Extension1inc_security.php", but this don't works.
Let me tell about my experiment:
- I have create a page containing the extension "php-login" named "login.php".
- I have create a SecureIndex.php page.
- I have copied at the top of index.php page of the forum (note that the phpbb forum is in another directory of site), the code
"<?php include("./SecureIndex_Extension1inc_security.php"); ?>" .
- i have copied into the same directory of the forum the file named "SecureIndex_Extension1inc_security.php".
All this don't works... Sure i have make a mistake, but i don't understand where. 
Thanks. |

I can't believe that phpbb does not have user management sufficient for your use
http://www.phpbb.com/support/documentation/3.0/adminguide/acp_groups.php
something like this is nice and more secure than a forum
http://codecanyon.net/item/project-management-application-php-ajax/339841?WT.ac=category_item&WT.seg_1=category_item&WT.z_author=CodeGeeks
there are others --search codecanyon for user management -- project management
want free project management
if you use cpanel go into cpanel and look for softaculous or whatever script installation tool you have. look for project management on the left side--I used taskfreak for a while and had no problems.
use good password is all--no immediate back and forth conversations is all
this is instant for $5
http://www.tufat.com/s_flash_chat_chatroom.htm
never used it myself--there are free chat scripts i am sure
you can add it to phpbb

I'm not an expert of PHPBB but I suppose it is possible to include a piece of page into every page of the forum.
If this is possible you can. |
