  I want to have an external script (totaly external from postnuke) which still requires users to be logged in and uses the pnAPI.
  
  What do I need to include into this external script so that the following code will work? pnUserLoggedIn() function in particular.
  
  

  Code

  // Show information for logged in user
  if (pnUserLoggedIn()) {
    $name = pnUserGetVar('name');
    if (isset($name)) {
      echo "Welcome to the site, $name";
    }
  }

  SO it's not going to be in the pnFrame at all? You need to include the pnapi.php for sure.

  At root (but not very secure)
  
  

  Code

  <?php
  
  include 'includes/pnAPI.php";
  pnInit();
  
  if (pnUserLoggedIn()) {
  
      $username = pnUserGetVar('uname');
  
      echo "Hi ".pnVarPrepForDisplay($username)." dude... And Welcome!!";
  
  } else {
  
      echo "Booou... !";
  
  }
  
  ?>

  
  
  ;)

  Thanks Chestnut...
  
  I did have this script in a seperate folder including the pnAPI.php, I moved it to the PN-root folder (/html), however, I still get the following error
  -------
  Warning: Division by zero in /home/avalonse/public_html/html/test.php on line 3
  
  Warning: main(PHP): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/avalonse/public_html/html/test.php on line 3
  
  Warning: main(): Failed opening 'PHP' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/avalonse/public_html/html/test.php on line 3
  
  Fatal error: Call to undefined function: pninit() in /home/avalonse/public_html/html/test.php on line 4
  -------
  Line 3 is > include 'includes/pnAPI.php";
  Line 4 is > pnInit();
  
  obviously pnAPI.php doesn't like being included here for some reason beyond my comprehension.

  is there another option of reading the user's cookie to find their user ID and then trace it back to their details in the DB?
  
  I notice the session ID is encrypted however, probably to prevent doing things like this.

  If you copy and paste, it should work, I have 3 or 4 like these... the problem is probably what is in your script or where you put it.
