$_CB_framework->myId(); returns 0 always. was created by musicmanaaron82
Having a big problem not being able to access a member's Id # externally.

I have uninstalled & reinstalled community builder and still having the problem. it first showed up when I uninstalled the facebook connect plugin. The script was working fine before but then started returning nothing but 0 as the id. I do not have CSubs installed and no additional plugins in cb. Only the component and log-in module. I am no expert coder but this worked fine before I uninstalled the plug-in. Something else to mention - before I uninstalled facebook connect I did not need to import cb.plugins and cb.html. But now if I don't I get a Fatal error: Class 'moscomprofilerUser' not found in /home/thewebap/public_html/administrator/components/com_comprofiler/plugin.foundation.php on line 963


I am not saying facebook connect caused it for sure - but it was immediately after.

The script is as follows.
<?php
global $_CB_framework, $mainframe, $_CB_database, $theScore;





define( '_JEXEC', 1 );
define('JPATH_BASE', dirname(__FILE__) );
define( 'DS', DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR );
require_once ( JPATH_BASE .DS.'includes'.DS.'defines.php' );
require_once ( JPATH_BASE .DS.'includes'.DS.'framework.php' );
$mainframe =& JFactory::getApplication('site');
jimport('joomla.base.observable');
 
if ( defined( 'JPATH_ADMINISTRATOR' ) ) {
	if ( ! file_exists( JPATH_ADMINISTRATOR . '/components/com_comprofiler/plugin.foundation.php' ) ) {
		echo 'CB not installed!';
		return;
	}
 
	include_once( JPATH_ADMINISTRATOR . '/components/com_comprofiler/plugin.foundation.php' );
} else {
	if ( ! file_exists( $mainframe->getCfg( 'absolute_path' ) . '/administrator/components/com_comprofiler/plugin.foundation.php' ) ) {
		echo 'CB not installed!';
		return;
	}
 
	include_once( $mainframe->getCfg( 'absolute_path' ) . '/administrator/components/com_comprofiler/plugin.foundation.php' );
}

cbimport( 'cb.database' );
cbimport( 'cb.html' );
cbimport( 'cb.plugins' );


$myId		=	$_CB_framework->myId();
$cbUser		=&	CBuser::getInstance( $myId );
 
if ( ! $cbUser ) {
	$cbUser	=&	CBuser::getInstance( null );
}
 
$user		=&	$cbUser->getUserData();

$gameField=$_POST['gameField'];
	$lastScore = $cbUser->getField( $gameField, null, 'html', 'none', 'list' );
	
	// $_CB_database->setQuery("UPDATE jos_comprofiler SET cb_instruments = 'Flute' WHERE user_id = $myId");

        $thisScore=$_POST['theScore']; 
       
        if ($thisScore > $lastScore) { 
	
	$_CB_database->setQuery("UPDATE jos_comprofiler SET $gameField = $thisScore WHERE user_id = $myId");
	echo $_CB_database->loadResult();
	writeVariable( "newHigh", "1" );
	}
	else {
	writeVariable( "newHigh", "0" );
	}
$numVariables = 0;

function writeVariable( $name, $value )
{
  if( $numVariables > 0 )
  {
      echo '&';
  }

  echo $name . '=' . urlencode($value);

  $numVariables ++;
}
echo $myId;

php?>

Based off your code it does not appear you are including CBs API. The reason Facebook Connect allowed your code to work is it includes and establishes the globals on ever page load. Now that it is gone you no longer have that API present. You can certainly use CB API externally however. Please see the below tutorial.
