gathering user info, login status
Page: 1
I am developing a small addition to ac for a client. It is not going to be a fully integrated module, but it must be viewable only by those logged in to AC and it needs access to certain user info like id, name, and role. How can I extract this data from ac without the page being a fully integrated module.
I tried including the following files with modified paths:
activecollab/angie/classes/VisanaObject.class.php
activecollab/angie/classes/auth/init.php
tried value of $user_id but no value returned
What includes do I need or how can this be accomplished?
Any assistance appreciated!
Thank you!

We recommend extending activeCollab only through modules. Creating your own initialization script and using authentication system directly might work but we change the system a lot and it is pretty complex so there is no guarantee that everything will work the same way in the future.

I understand, adding a module has a bit of a learning curve to it and I need this rather soon. Any good tutorials on adding modules?

Not at the moment, sorry. Use existing modules as a guideline (Checklists is one of the simplest and available in both Small Biz and Corporate versions).
