Hello
I have CB auto actions install and I'm trying to install a device fingerprinting solution at login

I have the following code, tested out of Joomla which works :


note : the sscript is normal as otherwise, forum do not allow me to put sample code and interpret it ...


I created an auto-action at "before login" with a code action
I'm fine with the first php line, but how can I have the 2nd working ?
I made some test with HTML or Javascript and it is not working ....
Thanks a lot !

There's no output during that trigger. This means the JS you're trying to echo will never do anything because that trigger is mid-PHP action. If you need that code to be output in the login form it self you should be using the below trigger.

onAfterLoginForm

With this trigger you need to return an array of data however, which for your usage should probably be as follows.


This should output your HTML before the login form.

Hello
Thanks for the answer
Why using the array ?

Using this code works, but the code is executed several time ... is the array makes the difference ?

$MyREFSessionID = md5(microtime(true));


$return = '<sscript type="text/javascript" src="https://xxxx?session_id='. $MyREFSessionID .'&debug=1">';
return ( $return);

Thx !

Why using the array ?

Well you don't have to, but for the case of the login module it's how you determine where your HTML will output in the module otherwise it default outputs after the login/logout button. I guess it doesn't particularly matter for your usage.

It's going to output with every login module. So if you've multiple login modules it will output several times. You may want to just consider making it a part of your templates HTML if you need it output guaranteed only once.

Hi
Ok , understood, it explains why it is run multiple times I guess.

using

return array( 'beforeForm' => $return )

only write " in clear" Array, array, array ( as text, part of the page I can read ) , as per the attachment


I don't get it... I guess I'm missing the philosophy of it to understand it ?
Thx

The return setting for your code action should be Return. I'm guessing you've it set to Echo.
