Just upgraded from 1.6 to 1.8.15. The quick login feature which had been used (enabled by updating jscripts/general.js) does not seem to be available. Login always opens a separate page from the portal. Is there a way to resurrect it, so clicking on "login" inserts a line in the portal for username and password as in 1.6? I found no help in the forums and don't see an obvious way in the code.
Thanks in advance.
Quick login is placed in Styles & Templates - Templates - Your Template - Header - Header_welcomeblock_guest. Do you have (at the very end) code like this?
<script type="text/javascript">
$("#quick_login input[name='url']").val($(location).attr('href'));
</script>
I can give you my header_welcomeblock_guest if you want, it works for me.
^ Also please make sure you have this code in your
global.css if you don't add it.

QuatZo- perhaps seeing your header_welcomeblock_guest in its entirety would help. I have added the code you suggested to mine without impact; I have insured the css code Brian said was required is in place, and I added the MyBB variable quickLogin to general.js but see no change in function. In version 1.6 the login took place right on the portal page and I would like to continue that with 1.8.
Thanks
Oh sorry, now I see, there is more about quick login. Here you have full header_welcomeblock_guest, without modifications iirc:
<!-- Continuation of div(class="upper") as opened in the header template -->
<span class="welcome">{$lang->welcome_guest} <a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/member.php?action=login" onclick="$('#quick_login').modal({ fadeDuration: 250, keepelement: true, zIndex: (typeof modal_zindex !== 'undefined' ? modal_zindex : 9999) }); return false;" class="login">{$lang->welcome_login}</a> <a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/member.php?action=register" class="register">{$lang->welcome_register}</a></span>
</div>
</div>
<div class="modal" id="quick_login" style="display: none;">
<form method="post" action="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/member.php">
<input name="action" type="hidden" value="do_login" />
<input name="url" type="hidden" value="" />
<input name="quick_login" type="hidden" value="1" />
<table width="100%" cellspacing="{$theme['borderwidth']}" cellpadding="{$theme['tablespace']}" border="0" class="tborder">
<tr>
<td class="thead" colspan="2"><strong>{$lang->login}</strong></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="trow1" width="25%"><strong>{$login_username}</strong></td>
<td class="trow1"><input name="quick_username" id="quick_login_username" type="text" value="" class="textbox initial_focus" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="trow2"><strong>{$lang->password}</strong></td>
<td class="trow2">
<input name="quick_password" id="quick_login_password" type="password" value="" class="textbox" /> <a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/member.php?action=lostpw" class="lost_password">{$lang->lost_password}</a>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="trow1"> </td>
<td class="trow1 remember_me">
<input name="quick_remember" id="quick_login_remember" type="checkbox" value="yes" class="checkbox" checked="checked" />
<label for="quick_login_remember">{$lang->remember_me}</label>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="trow2" colspan="2">
<div align="center"><input name="submit" type="submit" class="button" value="{$lang->login}" /></div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
$("#quick_login input[name='url']").val($(location).attr('href'));
</script>
Thank you QuatZo- I was onthe wrong track. Using your code and the 1.8 Index.php I was able to get the modal functioning properly.
