Get data of current user

[Subzero-mb]

I am trying ipb 4 since a couple of days and it looks incredible. Right now I am using in my production site ipb 3 and I have many custom scripts between forum and my website. What I would like to ask you it is regarding how can I get the information in my website of the user who is logged in the ipb4 forum.

With IPB 3 it is pretty easy, you just include initdata.php and ipsRegistry.php and then you can have a complete array with member data (username, email, birthdate, avatar...)

<?php

require SERVER_ROOT . 'public_html/forum/initdata.php';
require FORUM_CORE . 'sources/base/ipsRegistry.php';

$registry = ipsRegistry::instance();
$registry->init();
$user_data = $registry->member()->fetchMemberData();

print_r($user_data);

?>

 

But I am trying to do the same for the IPB4 forum but it is not working. According to this document: http://community.invisionpower.com/4docs/advanced-usage/development/single-sign-on-sso-r98/ this code should work:

<?php

/* Require the init.php file from the Community Suite root directory */
require FORUM_ROOT . '/init.php';

/* Initiate the session to verify who this user is */
\IPS\Session\Front::init();

/* Print the user's name */
print \IPS\Member::loggedIn()->name;

?>

But it is not working for me, I have no idea why but when I access to the php url the browser shows HTTP 500  error.

 

Can anyone help me? Thank you very much

<?php

/* Require the init.php file from the Community Suite root directory */
require FORUM_ROOT . '/init.php';

/* Initiate the session to verify who this user is */
\IPS\Session\Front::i();

/* Print the user's name */
print \IPS\Member::loggedIn()->name;

There was a typo in the documentation. It's \IPS\Session\Front::i(); instead of \IPS\Session\Front::init();
