Topic: What's the way vldpersonals checks online members?

Hello.

I need to understand what's the way vldpersonals checks online members, because I need to integrate third party scripts installing them into vldpersonals subfolder, but I would like that members are listed as "online" even when they enter those scripts/subfolders.

Is there a part of code that I can put into templates of the other scripts to keep members in online status into vldpersonals?

I would like to install a script into a vldpersonals subfolder to create a new section for events. Moreover I have to improve the existing phpbb3 built in integration into vldpersonals. Infact, phpbb3 integration works fine for members automatic login into phpbb3, but checking online status doesn't work. User is automatically logged into phpbb3 when he logs into vldpersonals (OK) and he can easily move from vldpersonals to phpbb3 and vice versa (OK). The problem is that when member move to phpbb3 his status on vldpersonals changes to offline. When he come back into vldpersonals member status turns back to online.

Well, I would like to understand the way I can make vldpersonals keeps members in online status when they move to the forum or any other script I would like to install into vldpersonals subfolders.

I am not talking about the way to automatically login a member from vldpersonals into another script. I just need to know how to keep in online status into vldpersonals a logged in member that moves from vldpersonals to a subfolder that contains another script.

Maybe I just need to do something like "embedding" or "wrapping" other scripts into vldpersonals and I suppose can do that just adding in the other scripts template some code that is into vldpersonals template. Am I right?

Re: What's the way vldpersonals checks online members?

It's in the documentation

Logged in Member Variables
{session.active} : Equals to “1” if member is active, “0” otherwise.
and
{session.id} : Member's ID
