Here is the deal, I started a new site this week, I use WWF as a backend for user administration and obviously the forum.  Since using the new version(downloaded it today), if on a different directory other than that of the forum, it does not display the user that is logged in when they log in (it should be above the Menu).

http://www.aspaware.com/ - http://www.aspaware.com/   is the address of the site

userid: testuser

password: test

At the top above the menu, as I had done in previous designs, I used the following to show a message, taken straight from the buttons include file originally found in the forum:

If lngLoggedInUserID <> 0 AND lngLoggedInUserID <> 2 Then
'write user that is logged in message

'else not logged in
Else
'welcome guest message

End If

Any ideas?????? 

Thank you so much for your hard work Borg!

If I login I see:

Welcome http://aspaware.com/member_control_panel.asp - testuser [ http://aspaware.com/forum/log_off_user.asp - Logoff ] above the menu.

If you are trying to detect a user on a page outside the forum, you will need to either include common.asp at the top of the page, or you will need to write code that will check the cookie to see if someone is logged in. 

The code you included above is only part of what is required to track users throughout your site.

For information on how to do this go to my tutorial:

and you can also look at my website http://www.CaribbeanChoice.com - www.CaribbeanChoice.com  to see the results.

Hope that helps.
