Why not...

Site > Control Panel

On the right column there are five items:

Welcome to Joomla!
Logged in Users
Popular
Recent Added Articles
Menu Stats

Click on Logged in Users

But this is not the right solution.

I want this if user is login then give message "Welcome to User Name"

otherwise "Welcome to Guest"

For this I need to this
if($my->id>0){
echo "Login";
}else
{
echo "Not login";
}

This code does not work.

please help me.

Thanks
Mamun

Ah yes... You'll find more on this here...

http://docs.joomla.org/Accessing_the_cu ... ser_object

Try that...

Code: Select all

$uid =& JFactory::getUser();
$uid= $uid->id;

Try this

Hi Did, you ever find a solution for this, as i have just found a similar problem, i have upgraded one of my sites and now it doesnt work properly.

Code: Select all

			    <?php
				if ($my->id ) {
					echo "logged in";
				} else {
					echo "logged out";
				}
				?>

That should be showing the message logged out if your not logged in, and logged in if you are logged in, but it doesn, it just shows logged out constantly.

Any idea?
Thanks
Ian

PS i usually use this to put in module positions such as

Code: Select all

			    <?php
				if ($my->id ) {
					echo "<jdoc:include type=\"modules\" name=\"user1\" headerLevel=\"3\" />";
				} else {
					echo "<jdoc:include type=\"modules\" name=\"user2\" headerLevel=\"3\" />";
				}
				?>

IN Joomla 1.5 $my is not declared like in 1.0. You need to define it like i said earlier..

So your code would be :

$my =& JFactory::getUser();
//Followed by your code..
if($my->id>0){
echo "Login";
}else
{
echo "Not login";
}
