so my forum is located in the folder forums
and my default page is located outside it
so directory structure
public_html
-------/forums
------------forums/index.php
-------default.php
what i wanna do is to be able to use $mybb->user['***'] everything on default.php
but even if i use global.php it still doesn't register anything...however if i place the same default.php page in the forums folder everything works out all the variables read properly and everyhting shows up
outside all blank
any ideas
define("IN_MYBB", 1);
require_once "./forums/global.php";
Try that. That should work, but if it doesn't, you'll need to set chdir to ./forums/. One of these will probably work...
no i already figured that i need to call the globals.php via
require_once "./forums/global.php";
and it works -- theres no error so globals.php is being added
to further confirm if i don't add
define("IN_MYBB", 1);
then it just spits out make sure IN_MYBB is defined
but the fact is
<?php
define("IN_MYBB", 1);
define("THIS_SCRIPT","default.php");
require_once "inc/config.php"; // my own config file
require_once $forum_path."/global.php"; // $forum_path is defined in the config file above
echo "Hello ".$mybb->user['username']; // this just outputs hello
?>
that script does not output the username outside the forum ...but does work perfectly inside
i wonder if this has anythin to do with $working_dir variable ??
It will depend on your cookie settings
I think you need one of the support team to answer this question , just wait some time .
may be it is something with functions or you need to include another file .
The support team isn't needed for this case.
You need to change the cookie path and cookie domain in the settings
