osCommerce

The e-commerce.

is it possible to 'log out' of admin?

I notice when I go to my management page, I can access it from anywhere without having to log on with a username or password. I know with an older version of our site (which someone else had set up for us) I had to log in, but I created the new site myself and have not come across any options where I can make my admin panel secure. How can I do this?

In the OSC guild it tells you that you need to secure the admin page. You can either use an .htaccess file or a contribution like

I would agree with you with that contrib but I cant there really isnt any way to log off the admin however I have noticed that that when someone is logged in the admin and the internet connection is reset you have to re-login if that means anything. I still think the osC team should look into this issue.

The Admin Access contribution has a Logoff function.

I have already secured my admin panel with .htaccess. If I install the contrib you mention, can I use the both at the same time, or do I need to take off the .htaccess password?

 

Since I have already put the password on with .htaccess, is there any other contrib or method to log off? Because I can't see any "sign out" or "log off" link in the admin section. Am I missing it, or is there really no way built-in to log off the admin panel?

 

Thanks.

You can use them both if you like. Or, if you don't want to use the .htaccess method, then just rename that file. You can't logoff when using .htaccess since it is not part of oscommerce.

I don't use it so I can't tell you where to look but any colors in the shop can be changed. The best place to ask would be in the support thread for that contribution.

Yes you can. Just after the </head> in the login.pyp you can add

 

<body bgcolor="#FF0000">

 

That would change the background to red or you could inset an image for your background. The script is very easy to mod in that it is normal html in the php. YOu could also change your font to what ever you like uning the same area of the script. The log off would also apply.

PM sent,

 

Unfortunately I didn't read the whole thread, my fault. I looked at the code for the above mentioned contribution and it looks like the color could be change as a style added to the beginning of the code. However I'm not the type that can do a style so I will not even give it a try.

 

Sorry guys
