Frank,

Yes the return form is called from the email template.

No edit user will not.  You could change the example code to check if the user exists and if not create them.

In the example code it is only expecting an admin to create a user but you can change it however you need.  The register method of ion_auth doesn’t require you to be an admin or not.

Thank Ben…

Regards,

Frank

Anybody up for translating Ion Auth?

I will do the German translation.

Thanks for the great library and best regards

hello,may I ask ?
the data stored to field ‘created_on’ and ‘last_login’ is generated from mysql function ‘now()’ , is that right ???
I’m confused, how to read the data stored.
this is the example :

1268889823 <- sample from my field ‘created_on’

how to read that ??

thankyou very much on ur explanation.

Thanks Bernd!

Kakap,
It’s a unix timestamp, you can check the userguide here: http://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-guide/helpers/date_helper.html

That’s UNIX timestamp, you can format it with

http://www.php.net/strftime

EDIT: We wrote answers in the same time 😊

now()

Returns the current time as a Unix timestamp, referenced either to your server’s local time or GMT, based on the “time reference” setting in your config file. If you do not intend to set your master time reference to GMT (which you’ll typically do if you run a site that lets each user set their own timezone settings) there is no benefit to using this function over PHP’s time() function.

http://id2.php.net/strftime

so,excusme, how to change it to standart format like “22 Jun 2010 22:05” when it’s retrieved ?? 😊
or what if I change it to standart php function like datetime() ??

thankyou (I’m still reading more references you sent)

kakap,

You can use CI’s mdate or PHP’s date.

for example using mdate():

$datestring = "Year: %Y Month: %m Day: %d - %h:%i %a";
echo mdate($datestring, $user->created_on);

ouwh, thank you.I tried with unix_to_human function also,, 😊
but,the time result from both of them is not match with my PC time,it’s about one hour faster. is that normal ??. (just tried @localhost).

thank you to answered my question before.

Hey kakap,

From the user guide:

Returns the current time as a Unix timestamp, referenced either to your server’s local time or GMT, based on the “time reference” setting in your config file.

It depends on how your server is setup as to whether or not it is based on the server’s localtime or GMT.

Hi Ben,

Does ion support auto login?
Our users hate logging in by pressing the login button.

If not, could this be added?

Thanks

Frank

I’m not sure what you mean Frank?

You can use the “remember me” functionality and set the user expire in the config…  Is that what you meant?

Would they still have to hit login, to login?

Or could they just point to our url and go to our home screen if login is remembered.

Frank,

The user just logs in once and then they will remain logged in until their cookie expires, the expire setting is in the config.

The way it works is, if remember me is set a cookie is stored and then in the constructor of Ion Auth it checks for a valid cookie and if it exists it automatically logs them in.

Thanks Ben….
