IPB Forum & PHP

[.:HyPeX:.]

Hello everyone i'm doing a login panel to include IPB forum.

This has been over seen lots of times, and i've only got one problem.

What are the IPB functions aviable?

I've already readed fatalterror's tutorial and QuantumZ's tutorialonly covered how to register accounts, not how to load them, or add any data to them.

I was told to use IPB's functions to all this. (I could already manage to get things working arround).

If anyone was kind enought to tell me wich are the functions i'd need to do a member login, get its user ID (in the forum), and save/restore data from its account, and its arguments, i'd be totally gratefull.

But, i got a problem, it is not working as it should.

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '[', expecting ')' in /data/web/virtuals/69588/virtual/www/hypexlogin.php on line 88

This is the php code

            } 
  
            return true; 
        } 
  
        return false; 
    } 
} 
?> 

it is funny, becouse the exact code given by IPB fails to load...

I'm not familiar with IPB, but did you try to remove the [ ] on line 88?

$localMember = IPSMember::load( $member ); 

Maybe something like this?

$localMember = IPSMember::load( $member ); 
$localMemMail = $localMember['emailAddress'];

Not really, i dont know php at all so idk what to do here...

What exactly is it you're trying to do with this? As far as I can tell, this is only to add different methods of logging into your IP Forum - for example, sign in through Steam or similar.

Pretty much a login panel
