IP.Board – Single Sign On in php

I’m developing a small hand made web portal for a community and I want it to have a loggin system with IP.Board (easier for the end user).

I have the forum and the app on the same hosting. For the loggin, the user clicks on a button and is redirected to this page:

<?php
require_once '../www/forum/init.php';
include_once 'includes/functions.php';
error_reporting(E_ALL);
session_start();
    IPSSessionFront::i(); 
    print_r( IPSMember::loggedIn());
    if(IPSMember::loggedIn()->member_id) {
        $name = IPSMember::loggedIn()->name;
        if(checkUserExistance($name)==0){                       
            //header("Location: ../index.php"); 
            print("LOGED EXIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!");
        }else{
            print("LOGED INNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!");
            $_SESSION['authenticated'] = 'yes';
            $_SESSION['user'] = $name;
            $userphoto = IPSMember::loggedIn()->photo;            
            $result = getUserData($_SESSION['user']);
            $_SESSION['isLeader'] = $result['isLeader'];
            $_SESSION['isAdmin'] = $result['isAdmin'];
        }           
    } else{
        print("LOGED OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!");
        $_SESSION['authenticated'] = 'no';
        if(session_destroy()){ // Destroying All Sessions   
            //header("Location: index.php");
        }
    }
    //echo "Auth by LOGIN";

If is not logged in IP.Board session (forum), it goes back to index.php

For now im developing a basic version of it, more improvements will be done once I get this working.

As you can see I have a print for debuging some data. On Edge everything works, but on Firefox or chrome I get a string of 32 characters, each time a diferent one, instead of getting the username. Example of what i get in Firefox and Chrome.

Does any one know why is this?

I’m using IPS Community Suite as the “Master”.

EDIT 1: Debug of IPSMember::loggedIn()

Answer

I decided to use the other option for SSO in IP.Board Te other option, sends the login request to the forum, and does not need to check the sessions. Forum API does it.
