Ok... that's more like it... :) user modes are on and working...
admin/admin is the admin
test/test is just a user...

^_^
try create a user with admin and then login with it, and change the password... :)
admins can VIEW and EDIT all users and admin accounts...

I need some help... should the admin be able to create more admins? :/// or not?

maybe you could distinguish between Admins and SuperAdmins..the latter would have the ability to create Admins and Users..while Admins could only create Users? :)

I don't think Admins should be able to view, edit, or delete other Admin accounts..just my opinion ;D

niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiceeeeeeee~ ^_^
Thanks I'll do that~ :>

[edit] a question... Any reasons why admins should be able to see passwords?
I want to md5 the password so admins and users can only create new ones instead of admins being able to view the user's password...
So I'm wondering if I should make an option for md5 or plain text password... :/ opinions on that?

Hi

Just like to say good job with the login script, Luka will be happy.

ref the admin.

May be with SuperAdmin/ owner of the News  only he/she can see the  passwords. text password view.
But just Admin and users will not be able to see them. so md5.

Then there is what you would like them to do as well with sNews.(Admin and users) Not SuperAdmin
add aritical Yes No
dell aritical Yes No
dell comments Yes No

Albert thanks for a nice reply~ :)

The thing is that md5 can't be reversed so it's either plain text or hashed...
Unless I include a two way encrption with a key... but it's just strain on the script...

Ok so that's the way we are going~ ^_^
One more question... Should the super admin's username/password be hardcoded in the php file? like Luka has it now? Or mysql again?

This is very simple to do in any case... I've added a $_SESSION['Mode'] which can be "Admin", "User", SuperAdmin"... so in any place we need to check who can do something we just include this...

I'll probably wait a 1-2 days for 1.4 to come out (fingers crossed~ ^_^) cause I remember something about the 15th? :/ (or am I wrong?)
So I don't have to change the whooooole thing from scratch~ :)

Not sure if I should've brought this back up, but I'd like to know if 1.4/2.0 supports multiple users. Is this also the idea behind this topic? Or is this topic about one user logging in using sql?
Anyway, I'd really like the possibility of multiple users.

This topic is for a mod that allows snews to have multiple users stored in mysql to login...
there is nothing said for native support in 1.4 for mysql users or multiple users.... :)

this mod is paused until 1.4 is released! :P

this should be ready 2-3 days after the RC release of 1.4...
I've done some work on it on storing salted cookies, session managment, password retrieval etc...
User modes (root, moderator, author, user)
~root can add/edit/del users/posts/comments, mod can edit/del/add posts/comments, author can add/edit his comments/posts.
User will be used if users have to register to post comments...
Comment access

and I'm working in reading access...

this might not be nesesery for most ppl so it will come in 3 versions with features that one can upgrade between...! ^_^
