CMS Forum Members Hack v1.10 BETA

[Patrick]

Well, another release. This time however, I am going to release it as beta first.

This new version *should* support IPB 2.0 PF4.

I am releasing this as beta because I have done some major code writing / modifications in order to add support for IPB 2.0's password encryption scheme (while keeping support for old IPB 1.3).

I haven't done alot of testing on any of it yet. All I have done is completed an IPB 2.0, e107 0.616, and hack install, compared passwords for logging in, and utilized IPB's change password feature, all of which showed success.

As with all betas, I wouldn't recommend installing this on anything other than a dev site.

Does this have redirection ? or the choice page thing ??

Ya it would be great where is still many bugs in the scrpts. Like showing list of users, bad redirections etc. Plz Patiek you are the only person that can manage to make it perfect.

One more thing i have used your older version on e107 617 and it works nice. User infos arent working well thats all. (http://Overmind.pl/).

Thanks for the feedback, I will have to update it then when I get the time.

Is it going to be like the hack with 1.3 or will it be a proper integration?
A perfect integration hack for me:
-one registration (in forums or in cms) and one member database (without this redirection stuff)
-users after logging in get info about posts,pm on ibforums
-forums are displayed outside the cms (not as inline)
-sessions/cookies work good, there are no errors in 'remember me' option on both forums and cms

God bless the one that makes it

The one member database is not a good idea. Relying on one member database will result in massive file modifications as well as incompatibility with third party code such as plugins.

That is why this hack does everything you described, but synchronizes the databases so that they contain their original structure (and therefore third party code continues to work).

A short one: the new hack is for ipb2.0PF4 or 2.0F ?

[Devil]

works with 2.0.0 and 2.0.1

[Patrick]

works with 2.0.0 and 2.0.1

Thanks for confirming that.

I will try to get version 1.1 of this hack released officially by Sunday. If I have extra time I will look into supporting PostNuke.
