Actual Quick Login Box - viriesque - 2011-03-22

Hey all Smile

I'm looking for some help making a login box that is always present for people to log in quickly without having to log-out beforehand.

Anybody have an idea how to do this?

With this modification you'll add a Login Box to the right side of your forum.
Go to: ACP > Templates > Header Templates > header_welcomeblock_guest > and find;

<span id="quick_login">{$lang->welcome_guest} (<a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/member.php?action=login" onclick="MyBB.quickLogin(); return false;">{$lang->welcome_login}</a> &mdash; <a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/member.php?action=register">{$lang->welcome_register}</a>)</span>

and add the following code just after that;

<div style="float: right; width:633; height:70">
	<form action="member.php" method="POST">
		<input type="hidden" name="action" value="do_login">
		<input type="hidden" name="url" value="{$url}">
			<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" width="50%" align="center">
				<tr>
					<td class="tborder">
						<table border="0" cellspacing="{$theme[borderwidth]}" cellpadding="{$theme[tablespace]}" width="100%">
				<tr>
					<td class="thead" colspan="2"><span class="smalltext">
						<strong>{$lang->login}</strong>
							</span>
					</td>
				</tr>
			<tr>
				<td class="trow1">
		<strong>{$lang->username}</strong>
			</td>
				<td class="trow1">
					<input type="text" name="username">
				</td>
			</tr>
			<tr>
				<td class="trow2">
					<strong>{$lang->password}</strong>
				</td>
				<td class="trow2">
					<input type="password" name="password">
				</td>
			</tr>
		</table>
	</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="right"><input type="submit" value="{$lang->login}"></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
</div>

It works very well and is just what was needed! Thanks very much Big Grin

One thought: Is there any way to get the login function to return the person to the exact page they were browsing upon login? Or must it return them to the index?

If you want to redirect your users to portal (or any other place) after they logged in to your forum then open ./member.php and find; around line # 1088

redirect(htmlentities($mybb->input['url']), $lang->redirect_loggedin);

and change it to;

redirect("portal.php", $lang->redirect_loggedin);
