I'm trying to better understand the process of registration, of login, of logout.

In the admin menu, there is also a Logout entry, an hyperlink to http://rimq.net/photos/zp-core/admin.php?logout=0

When using the Zenpage theme, on the side bar, the last item is Logout, if someone is logged. This hyperlink points to http://rimq.net/index.php?userlog=0

A few questions:
-is there an explanation on why the last URL is wrong (should be: http://rimq.net/Photos/index.php?userlog=0 ?
-what is the difference between both logout processes ?

When not logged in, there is in the side bar an item: Register. That points to http://rimq.net/photos/page/register

and it works well with Zenpage theme. I don't have this sequence of files in my site, therefore I don't understand why it works...?

Could someone help me to understand.

Thanks

Gaston

1. The logout link is pretty much irrellevant so long as it takes you to a Zenphoto script. The logout=0 is processed by the authentication code before anything happens.

2. That logout is from the user_login-out plugin. Other than loggin you out of the front end, there is no difference.

3. There is a script named register.php in the theme. This works because the mod-rewrite rules turn a .../page/string url into a .../index.php?p=string URL which is then processed by index.php to load a script named string.

Thanks for the answer.

1- One of my point was related to the fact that "Register" was not pointing to "Photos/index.php?userlog=0 " but to "index.php?userlog=0 ", the root of my web server ("Photos" is missing). Of course if does not work unless I had "Photos/" in address bar. Any idea why ?
2- 'This works because the mod-rewrite rules turn a .../page/string url into a .../index.php?p=string URL'
Could you just direct me to place to learn more about it ?

Thanks again

It really should point to the zenphoto index.php. No one had reported this before.

Do a web search on "apache mod_rewrite" for how that feature works. Review the Zenphoto themeing tutorial for how Zenphoto works.

On thread #7890, the guy seems to have exactly the same problem : a part of the URL is missing (that's why he got an "unknown page" message.
Here are the informations about my environment:

Version de Zenphoto 1.3.1 [5736] (Version officielle)

Thanks for the reference about the "apache mod_rewrite"

There will be a fix in tonight's build.
