Identifying user by session info...
Posted: Fri Feb 08, 2008 6:34 pm
I am attempting to utilize Joomla 1.5 to duplicate behavior already in use on another site.
Using the wrapper, entered from a registered access menu, I need to get session info to uniquely identify the user, either by user name, or ideally, by a unique code stored with the user info in the existing user table.
I checked the session name and id for a registered session; but the session PHPSESSID doesn't contain a string unique to a given user.
The end result is a php page within the wrapper that offers access to online reports that vary user by user...
TIA for the help.
