Question about direct file access

by **Canesfan625** » Tue Sep 16, 2008 9:24 pm

Hello everyone.

I run the roster on an e107 site and we have a custom plug in that lets people link their WoW toons to their e107 profile and shows them in a table. now the problem is that the name is also a link to their Roster profile. How would I go about enabling that link to be able to access the profiles without getting the access is invalid error?

any help will be awesome

thanks

You shouldn't. That message is there for several reasons. One of those is that if you include a file directly it'll be missing part of the roster environment. If you really want to include files directly you'll have to research what settings.php and index.php do to load that environment. Once you worked that out, you'll also know how to make sure the warning doesn't show up.

Alternatively, use an iframe or a href to roster.

If I understand you correctly, you need a link to the Roster character based on a name correct?

Then just use the name instead of the member id
roster/index.php?p=char-info&a=c:Name
SEO/Friendly URL: roster/trunk/char/info/a=c:Name.html

You can also specify realm and region
roster/index.php?p=char-info&a=c:Name@US-Realm
SEO/Friendly URL: roster/trunk/char/info/a=c:Name@US-Realm.html
