    Hi there,

    I have a requirement to allow user who have just registered to be automatically logged in.

    IE:
    - User fills out the registration form
    - User gets redirected to a page and is automatically logged in using the detals they just entered in the reg page.

    Anyone come across this before?

    Cheers,

    Justin

      Guys im trying to edit the Login function in webloginpe.class.php
      I created a new function called: LoginReg (same as above apart from difference below)

      I’m passing in the new username and password, however it’s not creating a valid session.
      Am I missing something obvious here, I thought the above would work?

        you should be able to use:-
        !WebLoginPE? &type=`register` &regType=`instant`!]


        Should be no need to change code.

          This will not work.
          Setting that param only serves to set a password locally,rather than having the webloginpe class set one and mail it out ot the user.
          I want to automate logging in, upon register?!

            Sorry jusmeig.

            I thought that was what you required.

            Did you mean to show some code.

            You talk about above and below.

              Guys I am calling the Login function, which is working and the session is getting set.
              A new line is being added into the active user, so it all looks good.

              However when I redirect to another page the session is then empty?

                  I need the same feature.

                  Does someone succeed in modifying webloginpe in order to achieve autologin after registration ?

                  Thanks.
