Show user name when someone add a book 13 Years, 7 Months ago
Karma: 0  
Hi, first of all, sorry for my english writing that it is not very good, but i hope you could understand my problem.

I have recently bought Booklibrary not for a shop, just for a small community with no bussiness goals. The reason of buying BookLibrary is because I would like to make possible that user can add books to library.

Therefore I would like two things:

1) When an user press "add book" button and fill up the information, the system could identify automatly the user and when the book is listing will show a new column with the name of the user who brings the information.

2) Make possible not to have to validate by the administrator when someone add a book.

At the first point I even tought in changing manually "Edition" to "Share by", and let the user to write his/her name by his/her own. But I prefer to make it easier because the average age is 50 and I think it is better if there is no need to do that and the user name is post automatly.

I think it should not be so difficult for someone with a minimum of knwonledge because I think it just to get the user name from data base and send it with the form. Then, open a new row in mysql line and show this information when listing the library.

Anyway, if someone could help me I would be really happy.

Thanks a lot
Enrique

  if(get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {
    $book->title = stripslashes($book->title);  
  }


to
Code:


  //remove escaped slashes
  if(get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {
    $book->title = stripslashes($book->title);

$book->published = 1 ;



3. Go to {yours site}/administrator/component/com_booklibrary/admin.booklibrary.php
