Most of the forums login and sessions functions are called from the common.asp file

You could try using of modifying that within your site.

The forums login form is an include file called login_form_inc.asp in the includes folder.

Making some headway, but now instead of proceeding to the page that I was trying to go to, it takes me to login page but does not go back to the orginal page I wanted to go to after I log in. Any sugestions?

I have just tried


<% If lngLoggedInUserID = "" THEN 
response.Redirect("login_user.asp")
END IF%>

and it still goes to the page, it doesn't redirect?!

That would not work because that variable is a number and not a text string.

It will be 1 for the default admin, 2 for guests and the rest of the members will be which ever number the database assigned them, so it would never be "empty" as it were.

Also, as stated in my tutorial you should always close the database before redirecting.

My tutorial simply allows people to block access to guests on pages off their website outside of the forum.

You can have the user taken back to the page they was redirected from by adding the following in red:

<%
If lngLoggedInUserID = 2 then
   Call closeDatabase()
   response.redirect("/forum/login_user.asp?returnURL=pagename.asp")
End If

%>

How ever if your protected page is outside of the forums folder (eg not in www.site.com/forum/) then the forum will strip out the directory and attempt to load the page within the forums folder (eg www.site.com/forum/pagename.asp)

This is designed to stop hackers redirecting users away from your site or injecting malicous code into your website.
