Hello!

(Running a pretty current csv of G2 on Ubuntu 10.4)

I am aparently missing the "Heureka-moment" when it comes to using the core classes.

I am looking to code a simple web-form that will execute a few functions if the user/pass combo is that of an existing gallery user.
Basically, a form with a user/pass that will see if the password matches said user name of Gallery.

I have found GalleryCoreApi.class, GalleryUtilities.Class and GalleryUser.class, but I cannot find any example on how I would do this.
I guess I am missing in particular the connection on how to fetch the hashed PW given a certain user name. Sure, I could write my own code for this... but why, when there is such a nice toolbox in place already :)

Any pointer?

example usage:

list($ret, $user) = GalleryCoreApi::fetchUserByUserName('plain_text_username');
if ($ret) {
    print "Error fetching user:".$ret->getAsHtml();
    exit;
}
if($user->isCorrectPassword('plain_text_password')){
    echo "hurray";
}else{
    echo "wrong";
}

AHA!

There was the Heureka-moment!

I actually had not realized that I had to use the embed-functionality. I thought that was only for actually embedding 'visual' items.

So, embedding is actually _all_ kinds of integration.

Thanks!

You can find all the "Heureka" you want in my mediaBlock or my embed tool
or mediaRss or SlideshowPro scripts ;)
