problem changing nick

[rakitir]

Code: Select all

<?php
session_start();

/*--------------------- chat --------------------------*/
   $params = array();
   
   if (isset($_SESSION['login']))
   {
      $params['dyn_params'] = array('frozen_nick');
       $params["frozen_nick"] = true;   
        $params["nick"] = $_SESSION['login'];
    }
   else
   {
        $params["nick"] = "Guest".rand(1,100);
   }
   require_once dirname(__FILE__)."/src/phpfreechat.class.php";
   

   $params["serverid"] = md5(__FILE__);
   $chat = new phpFreeChat( $params );
   
   /* ----------------- end chat --------------------------*/

?>

hi again,

PFC uses sessions when you enter the chat the first time it ask for a nick and its saved in the session,
when you log in in your CMS then return to the chat, PFC uses previous nick in the session instead of picking up the CMS registered nick.. then to avoid that you need to destroy the old session and restart a new one or use javascript to send the quit command .....

This behavior its not a flaw in the CODE , this way its the default behavior when integrated to a CMS, it supposed that if you want to have chat connected just to allow registered users.. and not guest anymore...

if you use the javascript approach it might not work 100% because sometimes the command fails when sent , best bet is destroying the session using a link that calls a php file that has the code to destroy when landing to the login page you start the session and login the user and redirect back to chat..

regards.
