Finally got time to release the user register script. As blogthis.php,
it is released as patch/feature request. Be warned that passwords are
not encrypted.

Hi CC,

Thank you very much. I really need this (and some others most probably
too) and I am really sorry to have taken so long to read my mail and
react.

But I have a few questions after I tried to set this script up.
a) I have inserted a blank user.php file inside the config directory
b)The permission of config folder is rwx        (700)
c) I have done steps 3 and 4 of the instructions

Then what is supposed to happen. Is the self registration to occur from
the new user inputing  his (her) name and pwd inside some fields to
place inside a tiddler?

Cheers and thanks again for the feature+

Hi again

After some sleep (and during some) I just answered myself the question
(: go to http://siteUrl/register.php). Sorry for the post before.

It works great !

I'm just wondering, if there are different privilege groups, in which
ones the self registered users end up. Is there a way to assign these
persons to a group?
Best
Pier

All new users will be in the "user" group. If you are confident in
editting the file, do the following

1/ open register.php
2/ go to line 70 and add a new line after it
3/ put in the following code after it
$content .= '$tiddlyCfg[\'group\'][\'<group name>\'][] =
'.$username.";\n";
replace <group name> with the group name of your choice

I'm in trouble :
The site now shows 500 Internal Server error after I deleted the
user.php file which contained the username and password of a self
registered user I created.

I did this because I tried your explanation but I probably misplaced
step 3 (not able to count up to 70 I guess :-(
it showed this error so I deleted everything but I was probably logged
as this user.

I can't recover my sites (3 online versions).
Please Help !
Pier

Hi,

Try change this line
$content .= '$tiddlyCfg[\'user\'][\''.$username.'\'] =
'.$password.";\n";
to these two
$content .= '$tiddlyCfg[\'user\'][\''.$username.'\'] =
'.$password.";\n";
$content .= '$tiddlyCfg[\'group\'][\'<group name>\'][]
='.$username.";\n";

You can try to use some text editor that shows line number such as
notepad++

After you delete the user.php, have you remove the include_once from
your config files?

Hi,
Sites are back to normal it seems Thank you very much. I will install
another site with all I've learned and experimented so far. I will be
back to the registration after that.
Cheers

Hi,

What were the problem before?

CC

Hi,
THis 500 internal server error was maybe due to a misplacement of the
line $content .= '$tiddlyCfg[\'group\'][\'<group name>\'][] =
'.$username.";\n";
then I tried to delete all that pertained to register but I had left
the default.php with the add on line and that was it.
I think that the new user I had tried was logged on when I cleaned the
files but did not dissapear entirely. So I deleted one occurence in the
DB (the tiddler this "new user" created). But that did not revert the
site to normal.
Hope this explaination helps?
Pier

CC,
please check this unexpected behaviour on http://p.edelman.free.fr/WIK5

this is the user.php file content :
<?php
$tiddlyCfg['user']['kool'] =dude;
$tiddlyCfg['group']['<group name>'][]=kool;
?>
<?php
$tiddlyCfg['user']['abc'] =def;
$tiddlyCfg['group']['user1'][]=abc;
?>

Where kool has a normal view of the site allthough I forgot to indicate
that he should have a user1 status.
Then I changed the register.php file to reflect that on any new
entrant, but abc has a wrong view of the site.

alpha (pwd omega) created straight into the default .php the "old way"
has a user1 privilege and can see the site normally (like kool).
Where's the catch?
Pier

Hi,

your user.php file content is superb. Fixed the bug. A mistake on my
side. You can download them off sf again.

Cheers,

Hi CC

I get this :
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: formatparameters() in
/mnt/132/sdc/0/6/p.edelman/WIK5/register.php on line 50

after I set the groupname as user1 and removed the // in front of this
line (new register file).

Kool and abc have the same view of the site as before, one Ok the other
notOk

I tried to remove the old user.php with their ID pwd and started with a
blank file again, but to no avail.
Any clue to what I did wrong ?
Pier

Sorry, am too tired lately with my work and keep on making mistakes.
Please uncomment the formatParmeters function (removing /* and */).
Otherwise I have updated the one on sf's site. I have also added a new
variable, $user_group, to ease changing default user group in the new
one.

Could you use a new "user.php" and let me know if it works?

Thanks.

CC

Hi CC,

New user darth , pwd : vador created OK, but its rights seem admin
like.

When trying to log it out I get this on top of the header now
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by

the user.php file is empty

and it is not logged out.

the URL shows :
http://p.edelman.free.fr/WIK5/index.php?logout=1&logout=1&

Also, get some rest.
Take care
