Check if client is logged in (on website homepage)

[Will Hosting]

Hello,

 

I was wondering if there is any way to check whether a client is logged in on my homepage.

 

I have the WHMCS portal/panel integrated already and I want to show a log in box on my homepage.

 

I want it so that if they are not signed in, a login form appears (already have the code for that) and if they are signed in, then it shows the following:

 

Welcome Back, [first name]!

[Link to portal]

[sign out link]

 

I was also wondering if it was possible to show an admin page link if the user is an admin.

 

Any suggestions about how to show different text if they are signed in or if they are signed out?

 

The current portal is at http://portal.willhosting.com/ and the website is at http://willhosting.com (though, we are working on a beta one, too)

 

If anyone could help, it would be greatly appreciated by Will Hosting and by our clients.

there is a session veriable or name but i am not sure what it is myself.

Maybe if you Email WHMCS they could provide the information

Code to check if user is logged in or not

{if !$loggedin }

 

Show text A and login form

 

{else}

 

Show text B

 

{/if}

 

Code for Welcome message

 

{if $loggedin}

 

Welcome <strong>{$loggedinuser.firstname}</strong>,  

 

{else}

 

<a href="clientarea.php" title="{$LANG.loginbutton}"><strong>

 

{$LANG.loginbutton}</strong></a>

 

{/if}

 

I hope this will help you Best of luck!

It would be amazing if this could work on a non WHMCS page. I tried to find a way to make it work a few months ago but couldn't figure it out

Yes it only work on WHMCS page. But for what purpose you want to use it on non WHMCS page?

On my site I use a plain XHTML/CSS design for the main site and then WHMCS for the billing/support. I try to make my website and WHMCS flow together without noticing but the problem with that is that I can't really use scripts that only work on WHMCS because it will disappear on other pages.

well in all fairness i have WHMCS in one folder and my website in the public

 

So passing the session over to the main website is needed to make for a seemless intergration.

 

Now in all fairness i know i have had a email somewhere with veriables in it so i will have a look and get back to you.
