Ok!

A question on the folder xoops_data:

If it is to be used by other modules in writing, we can not change the permissions to read-only.

If we feel that this folder by default must be read-only, it is a good idea to think that it should be set to read-only immediately after installing xoops.

What do you think?

Quote:
Why this thought?

xoops_data is for all Cache files, and for config files, so it has be writable. Unless I am missing something.

I think I said xoops, but I wanted to understand the only module Userlog

Then we must explain why irmtfan in his module userlog want to make it read-only in index.php



This:


can be done from the install folder (include/install.php):

systems windows you can not easily change after:

Sorry for confusion.
Thank you for your test.
Actually the first question is: Where is the best and most reliable place to save logs?
I chose xoops_data, one can chose xoops_data/caches because he would be sure this folder is writable.
In my wesbite xoops_data is out of wwwroot so i set chmod at 755. but one may have it inside wwwroot and may prefer to make it read only.

Quote:
I dont make it read-only.
755 is the minimum required chmod to write inside the folder, so any chmod above it is acceptable.

IMHO It is a displaying bug in moduleadmin class. (I forgot to post it )
In xoops255\Frameworks\moduleclasses\moduleadmin\moduleadmin.php Line 213:


should be changes to:

then it will show OK when the chmod is above 755.

Userlog will not create folders in install because:
1- user may prefer to dont use log in file at all.
2- user can change the log folder location. ( currently xoops_data/userlog and uploads/userlog)
so once user choose to save logs in file the required folders will be created.

even you can add your folder easily in xoops_version.php
the log folder location is not hard-coded in the whole codes. so if you add a full path in xoops_version.php it will read it from there.

Today i updated userlog to version 1.1

I noticed in some weird situations (eg: custom forms, hacks, ported modules like mediawiki, ...), there is no redirect message after submit. If you want to log any POST method regardless of redirect message you can set a config to yes.

download trunk:
http://svn.code.sf.net/p/xoops/svn/XoopsModules/userlog/trunk/

version 1.01 is frozen and only will be updated if there are any bugs remained.
If everybody agreed we can release version 1.01 final.

Today i finally add one of the wishes for a log module that i had for years.
A login/register history.
Quote:
Actually we need a login history because the last login field in users table is just one time not history. Even it is not last login at all!!! It is just the last visit of a logged-in user.
Once all tested passed OK in stats.php page I will implement those functionality to blocks easily.

download trunk and test:
http://svn.code.sf.net/p/xoops/svn/XoopsModules/userlog/trunk/

hi imrtfan very nice

btw can you make a special block for the success last login history where we can exclude any user etc

i forgot where i got this but i use this in my site all this while
