Thanks! This code helped for what I needed too. Is is possible to log the user in automatically since they are setting their password during registration? Currently the user has to click on the login link and enter their credentials to log in. Just wanted to see if it could be easier for the registrant.

thanks,

Tim

Hi Tim,

Yes, once you've created the user account, you can trigger a login.

In order to do this, we need 3 variables in the $_REQUEST array: username, password, and action.

After that we can call the _websiteLogin_login(); function from the Website Membership plugin, which will complete the login.

For example:

@$_REQUEST['action'] = "login";
_websiteLogin_login();

$errorsAndAlerts = alert();

This code assumes that $_REQUEST['username'] and $_REQUEST['password'] still have values in them from the form. If they don't you need to give them values. Also, if you are using password encryption, you must assign the unencrypted password to the $_REQUEST['password'] variable.

Hope this helps

Hi Guys,

Is this still the same process with the latest version of the membership plugin?

I'm not sure whether to delete just the first line, or all three lines below;

      // generate password
      $password     = substr(md5(uniqid(mt_rand(), true)), 15); // example output: c5560251ef0b3eef9
      if (@$SETTINGS['advanced']['encryptPasswords']) { $passwordHash = getPasswordDigest($password); }
      else                                            { $passwordHash = $password; }

I've tried both, and I've tried changing bits and pieces of;

password = '".mysql_escape( $passwordHash )."',

but the password entered via the form, doesn't seem to get added to the admin, and I was thinking it had something to do with the encryption?

Cheers,

Hi Tim,

Is nothing getting added to the user account in the password field? Is the rest of the record created properly?

If you could attach your entire .php file, we can take a closer look at this for you.

Thanks,
