Hi - my client wants a site that users (who are given an ID number) can log into and view various pages of info.

Couple of things -
1 - Every login needs to be recorded (time date etc)
2 - after x minutes of inactivity, they will be logged out.

They also don’t want to use passwords.

Now, I guess I can fool the member module login by making the password field hidden (with a value), but can EE do the other bits? I am guessing that the tracking module is not set up for this.

Do you think that there is another way to do this with free form for example?

thanks, Marc

Bump - anyone?

BTW I have managed to sort out the session time out thing - I just really need to know if there is a way of recording every login….

Bit one sided this conversation - However….

I have managed to use Free form (with a bit of javascript to auto submit) to store a date and time for e very login.

My problem now is that the redirect on submit function in FreeForm is losing the logged in user’s session (I am using Session only for members).

Does anyone know how to fix this OR how to get at the Session ID so I can append it on the return path myself?

Marc

Well here’s how I did it.

User logs in-> Goes to first page which autosubmits (using JS) to a freeform weblog with the user ID, name etc.
FreeForm sends the user to the main site page.
To get freeform to respect the user’s session I prefixed the return url with <? global $SESS; echo($SESS->userdata[‘session_id’]); ?>

That seemed to work.

Quite in here init?
