log in to RN 2.3

Posted: Sat Mar 21, 2009 4:32 pm

Hey guys,

Can one of you good folks point me to the place to find out how to tie a login and password block into the RN portal system? I am using CSS based themes for the front end of my RN portals. Some of them have the login block set up ready to be completed. To date I have had no success in getting it to work and I am certain it can be done.

Typically the code I have available to work with is thus

Code:

<form><table width="263" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">


            <tr><td height="67" colspan="2"><img src="images/secure.jpg" width="176" height="36" style="margin:15px 0 0 32px"></td></tr>


            <tr><td height="33" colspan="2"><input value="your name" onClick="this.value=''" type="text" style="width:168px; height:23px; color:#2D383A; padding:6px 0 1px 6px; margin-left:35px; border-color:#7F8B8D; border-width:1px; border-style:solid"></td></tr>


            <tr><td height="33" colspan="2"><input value="************" onClick="this.value=''" type="password" style="width:168px; height:23px; color:#2D383A; padding:6px 0 1px 6px; margin-left:35px; border-color:#7F8B8D; border-width:1px; border-style:solid"></td></tr>


            <tr>


               <td height="47" width="136"><p style="margin:6px 0 0 35px"><a href="#" class="yel">forgot your password?</a></p></td>


               <td width="127"><input type="image" src="images/login.jpg" height="23" width="67" style="cursor: hand; cursor: pointer;"></td>


            </tr>


         </table></form>

I have looked for a solution and tried what my feeble mind is capable of imagining without success. I am hoping one of you guru’s can point me to some instructions on how to do what is prolly a very simple task that is presently beyond my grasp. My thanks as always for the assistance.

This is not a definitive response but ...

start by taking a look at /blocks/block_Login.php

There is a login form there. The action for that form is /modules/Your_Account ... meaning I am pretty sure that it goes to the Your_Account/index.php. When a person submits that form it sets an op to "login" and then goes to index.php. So now look at that index.php. See what it does when the op is set to "login" (the case statement). You might be able to replicate the /blocks/block_Login.php in your code ... I think and just have it pass the results to /YA/index.php the way the current block file does.

Your form needs several things.. like an ACTION and a METHOD property Smile
