Not everything was ported up; you should ask there or email the author and ask...

I discovered that the auto login only works if the default cookies are used without a cookies prefix.

Try replacing:


With:

After I had changed my cookie prefix back to the default, the auto login began to work without any problem, therefore, I will not make this change, however, it is good to have it here for future use, or for others having the same problem.

Was hoping someone would test it out vs me on my dev machine; as I don't use the script in a production environment I cannot test the functionality of the addition properly.

well I'm still in dev myself but I added it in and it worked fine for me.

Well, thats good enough for me; I'll post it at the flashchat thread to be updated in the integration

I actually already posted it there.

They actually tested it and they said it works.

I posted a problem I'm having on their forum - hopefully one of you guys could lend a hand since I cannot log in to FlashChat!

Okay, well, let me ask you guys this, if you have FlashChat integrated successfully into Threads 7.* -- the Mod there hasn't been very helpful.

For some reason, for me, the "built-in login" is working, but not the manual "HTML-based login" -- it says "incorrect user name or password". Has anyone here been able to log-in when it asks you for a username/password?

Also, before I use FlashChat, I really need it to display Display Names and not Usernames. Anyone figure that out yet? I can't seem to find it...

Thanks!

geoff, i have it working for html based login, no problems...

As for PDN, let me have a look at the files and I'll get back to you.

It doesn't look like the integration file even touches the pdn, it just basically works with the login name and password...

If I get some more time I'll do some digging in the normal files to see if i can find a place to hijack what name is shown; but no promises, the ammount of files is vastly huge...

I wish I knew what my problem was. Are you using the 7.1 version? I'll have to play with it more I suppose...

Sorry, what's PDN?
The Threads 7.1 CMS file seems to call up USER_DISPLAY_NAME - but after looking at dozens of files, I cannot find where/how to use it...

Yes I'm using the 7.1 version; you can fiddle at:

PDN == Public Displayed Name; I do realize that it selects the PDN but it never referances, if you look at the calls, it only uses the login name and password (i think its the third mysql call).

I've "cleaned up" my configuration file so line numbers wouldn't match up, else I'd tell you what lines to look at lol...

I did see that some of the scripts referance "name" so I set name as a variable but it doesn't get used; I'm sure it's only used for their "normal"/"non-integration" login system...

Yeah, yours works... mine doesn't... guess I'll try reinstalling it... :rolleyes:

Why Darren chose to display user names rather than display names is till beyond me... makes it virtually worthless...

well it's quite simple; most products don't have public names and only have login names... however i think it would have been cool to have the option; perhaps email him with a feature request?

Guess an email to him directly would be better than trying to get passed his bulldog moderator! LOL

... no comments from me, as they wouldn't be professional in nature :nods:

Did anyone ever figure out the display name vs login name fix? I've read here and at the Tufat forums, no luck yet.

From my point of view, without knowing what their script looks for as a variable it'd be near impossible to pull it with the integration file.

From their point of view, we're a "small fish" and they could care less.
