WoLeRiNe` Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Hello Dear IPS.For exemple;I'm now in ACP but why i must enter my e mail and password for acces to CLIENT AREA? I have entered ACP avec my nick and password, why ask e-mail and password for CLIENT AREA?I'm not on https://www.invisionpower.com/customer/ , i'm on my acp, i write my nick and password before acces to ACP and for CLIENT AREA i enter always e mail and password. I think, we don't need enter e-mail and password when we are in the ACP for acces to CLIENT AREA. This will be better... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 That page of the ACP loads an iframe, the content of which is the standard client center page. There's no other way for that page to validate you're actually you than if you sign in there just like you always have to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PolakTom101 Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 You are viewing another website plus getting IPB will have to be encoded to work like that method and she one would have to write a script. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoLeRiNe` Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 After acces in the ACP, if we can acces automatically in the CLIENT AREA when we click on "HELP&SUPPORT", this will be better, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 How is it supposed to know the person accessing your account in there is actually you if you don't sign in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith J. Kacin Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 You will access it automatically, if you have an active cookie for the client area.There is no way to do it otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 IPB doesn't know your password, so it can't submit it to the client center (and even then it might be different) and some people (me included) use a different email for their boards than on the client area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stobbo Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Also if someone hacked your board and got into your account would you want them to access your Client Center? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Management Matt Posted February 19, 2007 Management Share Posted February 19, 2007 We will never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever (etc) allow an automatic log in to the client center based on your own IPB authentication credentials.

In the ACP there is a protection ,Please take some time and read through the Getting,If one of your community ,wants to crack your password ,and suddenly he succeeds. what can you do ,if he could log in to your client center?There is not important and this is not the way to do that so much ,you can trust me. I tried to create a new mods that log in to your client center from your ACP ,automatically. Unfortunately, there was a wrong way. So, I removed the modification from my board (The modification saved all the cookie ,while you spend your time in the ACP). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
