Astaran Addict Registered: 12/21/00 Posts: 1545 Loc: Germany	I thought of storing all this info in a database so that you can query for duplicate idenities of a specified user.<br /><br />But i did come up with a satisfing db-schema so far. Maybe someone else has an idea?<br /> _________________________ Running a community? -> Keep informed and take it to the next level

Damn, the Idea of having total control and knowing who is using what turns me on.

ksanuk Member Registered: 02/06/02 Posts: 297 Loc: Bangkok, Thailand	Hi,<br /><br />I just tried this on 6.1.1 but it does not work. It generates the following error:<br /><br />Fatal error: Call to undefined function: get_input() in /export/data1/users2/board/public_html/ubbt.inc.php on line 229<br /><br />Any suggestions on how I can get this to work on 6.1.1 ?<br />This would really be helpful on my board since I get the occasional dickhead signing up with a new ID just to flame someone (we have a very strict rule on flaming, you get warned once... if you are lucky).<br /><br />Sanuk!<br />

JoshPet I type Like navaho Registered: 11/29/01 Posts: 11330 Loc: Charlotte, NC	Try taking the get_input lines out of the cookies script. Those are unneeded (and that function didn't exist) in 6.1.x<br /><br />Otherwise... I think it should work fine. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> _________________________ Joshua Pettit www.JoshuaPettit.com My abilities are for hire.

ksanuk Member Registered: 02/06/02 Posts: 297 Loc: Bangkok, Thailand	Hi,<br /><br />Hmmm, one of my mods created a new account, used it, then logged back in using his real account, but I did not receive any PM. He assures me that he did not mess around with his cookies.<br /><br />Does one need to check the 'Remember me' box in order for this to work?<br /><br />Sanuk!<br />

Beentheredonethat Member Registered: 05/10/02 Posts: 160 Loc: Not here	this is a great script...<br />you will receive a pm with the usernumbers but as they are clickable and take you to that users profile there is no real need to make it go by username<br /><br />Great script!<br />Thanks

smilesforu Junior Member Registered: 01/31/02 Posts: 676	I like the idea of the username included with the usernumbers, would make tracking stuff down friendlier. I also received a message today from user number 1 which I already had in the list, but didn't have the second number.<br /><br />Under the impression I wouldn't get the messages if one of the numbers was listed... hmm<br /><br />Anyway the list of exclude numbers has greatly decreased the messages I been getting on multiple identities.<br /><br />Thanks again for a great mod.<br />

JoshPet I type Like navaho Registered: 11/29/01 Posts: 11330 Loc: Charlotte, NC	UPDATED: 4-15-03 by JoshPet - Added a step to expire the cookies for Admins. Otherwise, even though the cookie isn't set if you are an Admin, you get one when you use the "become this user feature". So as soon as you become 2 users... you start getting "Multiple Identity Detected" PMs out the ying yang. This update will prevent that. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Hope JustDave doesn't mind me updating his code. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /><br /><br />If you already have this installed, add this above the Multiple Identity Detector Code:<br /><br /> Code: <br />if ($user['U_Status'] == "Administrator") {<br /> setcookie("{$config['cookieprefix']}IDstack",'',time()-846000,"{$config['cookiepath']}");<br />} <br /> <br /><br />Coy - I installed this at your board because I was sick of so many PMs. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> _________________________ Joshua Pettit www.JoshuaPettit.com My abilities are for hire.

Mudpuppy Journeyman Registered: 08/16/02 Posts: 113 Loc: Sin City	Sorry -- I forget that you get those PMs as well. I hate it when users post in the wrong thread, but have no option other than to manually move their post to the proper thread (I supposed I could delete the post... depends on what sort of mood I'm in). Anyway, I've been doing lots of "login as user" lately to move posts around.

Dalantech Junior Member Registered: 02/11/01 Posts: 2392 Loc: Naples, Italy	One way to avoid triggering the mutiple identity check when you become another user is to use JustDave's My Cookie utility to clear your Threads cookie before you log back in as yourself. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /><br /><br />The My Cookies utility will be in the next version of Threads (6.3). _________________________ Da LAN Tech Threads Dev Moderator

I made a small change in the code in order not to receive pm but every multiple identity to be writen in a file I was getting tired reading,deleting pm's and I think this is a better solution for a busy board.

Code:

  if (!empty($user['U_Number']) &amp;&amp; $user['U_Status'] != "Administrator") {<br />         ${$config['cookieprefix'] . "IDstack"} = get_input($config['cookieprefix']."IDstack","cookie");<br />         if (empty(${$config['cookieprefix'] . "IDstack"})) {<br />            ${$config['cookieprefix']."IDstack"} = ",{$user['U_Number']},";<br />            setcookie("{$config['cookieprefix']}IDstack",${$config['cookieprefix']."IDstack"},time()+846000,"{$config['cookiepath']}");<br />         }<br />         else {<br />            $tempID = ${$config['cookieprefix']."IDstack"};<br />            if (!stristr($tempID,",{$user['U_Number']},")) {// another usernumber from same computer detected<br />               ${$config['cookieprefix']."IDstack"} .= "{$user['U_Number']},";<br />               setcookie("{$config['cookieprefix']}IDstack",${$config['cookieprefix']."IDstack"},time()+$config['cookieexp'],"{$config['cookiepath']}");<br />               $Unums = split(",",${$config['cookieprefix']."IDstack"});<br />               $andids = "";<br />               for ($i=0; $i&lt;(sizeof($Unums)); $i++) {<br />                  if (!empty($Unums[$i])) {<br />                     if ($i &gt; 1) {<br />                        $andids .= $ubbt_lang['MULTIPLE_IDENT_MSG2'];<br />                     }<br />                     $andids .= " &lt;a href=\"{$config['phpurl']}/showprofile.php?Cat=$Cat&amp;amp;User=" . $Unums[$i] . "\" target=\"_blank\"&gt;" . $Unums[$i] . "&lt;/a&gt; ";<br />                  }<br />               }<br />               $msg = "&lt;strong&gt;" . $ubbt_lang['MULTIPLE_IDENT_MSG1'] . $andids . $ubbt_lang['MULTIPLE_IDENT_MSG3'] . "&lt;/strong&gt;";<br />               $Sender = $user['U_Number'];<br />               $To = "ADMIN_GROUP";<br />               $Subject = $ubbt_lang['MULTIPLE_IDENT_DETECT'];<br />               //$this -&gt; send_message($user['U_Number'],'',$Subject,$msg,'ADMIN_GROUP');<br />               $log=fopen("/home/public_html/ubbthreads/log.html","a");<br />               fwrite($log,"$msg&lt;br&gt;\n");<br />               fclose($log);<br />            }<br />         }<br />      }

This code for ubbt.inc.php and it writes all the multiple identities in a log.html. You must create this first Hope it helps

Dave_L_dup1 Addict Registered: 04/23/02 Posts: 1929 Loc: Virginia, USA	[]$log=fopen("/home/public_html/ubbthreads/log.html","a");<br />fwrite($log,"$msg<br>\n");<br />fclose($log);[/]<br /><br />This could be replaced with:<br /><br />error_log("$msg<br>\n", 3, '/home/public_html/ubbthreads/log.html');<br /><br />You probably wouldn't want that file to be publicly readable. I suggest making the log file a config parameter, e.g.:<br /><br />error_log("$msg<br>\n", 3, $config['midetect_log']);<br /> _________________________ UBB.threads beta tester / threadsdev.com moderator Software consulting services including UBB.threads problem resolution / installs / upgrades / customization.
