CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

My custom code is working, my workaround involves logging the user out of joomla and then programatically logging them back in via the code in the last post.  It was quite a long way around though and a clearcache($userid) style api function would have been awesome!

However I am a big fan of CIVICRM and now I just need to figure out guest memberhsips thats critical,  I know there is a community hack but I'm going to try and do something even more simple based on encrypted cookie deauthentication and reauthenication when they hit my custom control panel.

Ill let everyone knows how it goes, I am about 95% sure i can get guest member functionality in this way.  My custom dashboard will log the joomla user out and redirect to the public membership page, when they go back to the control panel if it has been less than 5 minutes and its the same user as the encrypted cookie joomla user id then it will auto log them back in.

Thanks
