hi,
i want to include in my home page a short "Welcome back, [username]" with the username that varies depending on which user logs in.
so i edited [theme]%2Ftheme.html and created a login box:



User:

Pass:


 

Join



  Welcome back, _tpl_vars['user_realname']; ?>


Unfortunately it only works while browsing the User Page, the other pages give a "Welcome back,." with no username.
What function shall i include to make it work???

alfredxz:

This code will suffice (of course, add the necessary code for the login form):

<{if !$xoops_isuser}>

<{else}>
Hello, <{$xoops_uname}>
<{/if}>

This code goes in the theme.html file, most probably in the header, but you can in fact use the variable anywhere.

Now, if you NEED this to go in a block, please read

Cheers.

Thanks a lot!

It worked with:
_tpl_vars['xoops_uname']; ?>
