@simmons,

Are you sure you have put
Code: Select all
<cms:member_check_login />
in the template showing the sidebar?

If the check above is not done or if a member is indeed not logged-in, the k_member_id variable will be empty.

Following should work (you'll remember we discussed this once before in this thread)
Code: Select all
<cms:member_check_login />
..
..
<cms:if k_member_logged_in >
   <cms:pages masterpage=k_member_template id=k_member_id>
      ... you have all data about the current member here ..

      <cms:show_securefile 'imagefile'>
         <cms:dump/>
      </cms:show_securefile>

   </cms:pages>
</cms:if>

Hope this helps.
The sidebar is the one that has the <cms:member_check_login /> in the top most line.
I set it up this way because the sidebar is embedded on every page and is loaded before any content is displayed, within the <cms:if k_member_logged_in /> code is where I have a short script that displays the member's display name and other member details, so the k_member_id is present...

I just figured it out, in the pages tag I used page_id=k_member_id, instead of id=k_member_id.

So sorry.

Hi,

Playing with the member module I see it's simple to check if current user is logged in. I'm wondering if is there a way to check and list other logged in users?
@atisz

No way as yet, Atisz. Will have to get that part in once Couch is ready to create forums. Will have to wait for a little while.

Ok KK, I'll wait. And probably a chat like this http://anantgarg.com/2009/05/13/gmail-facebook-style-jquery-chat/ is another thing that is impossible to be implemented right now. Can you estimate how much will take until this version of Couch will be released?
If setting up a separate member area for a website, on member login the redirect should take the visitor rather to members/myaccount.php than to k_site_link. In documentation I couldn't find any reference on how to make this change.
on member login the redirect should take the visitor rather to members/myaccount.php than to k_site_link.

The 'cms:member_process_login_form' tag accepts an optional 'redirect' parameter you can use to set where the member gets redirected to e.g.
Code: Select all
<cms:member_process_login_form redirect="<cms:link 'members/myaccount.php' />" />

Please note that the 'redirect' parameter accepts only a full URL (i.e. that begins with 'http://' or 'https://') and the URL should belong to the current site (i.e. cannot redirect to an external site). Therefore it is a good practice to use cms:link to generate the correct URL of the target template (as done in the example above).

Hope this helps.

As usual :) Thanks KK!
I have read all posts of this topic related to displaying the current member's avatar but I think I'm missing something :(
In my index.php I have:
Code: Select all
<cms:editable name='avatar' label='Avatar' allowed_ext='png, jpg, jpeg' max_size='2048' type='securefile' thumb_width='100' show_preview='1' use_thumb_for_preview='1' />

and in myaccount.php
Code: Select all
<cms:member_check_login />
.........................
<cms:if k_member_logged_in >
   <cms:pages masterpage=k_member_template id=k_member_id>
   <cms:show_securefile 'avatar'>
        <cms:dump/>
   </cms:show_securefile>
   </cms:pages>
</cms:if>

but all i get displayed is:
show_securefile
file_id: 12
file_name: user1.jpg
file_ext: jpg
file_is_image: 1
file_size: 70106
What am I missing here?
