skip log in page was created by Fabian

Hi!

is it possible to skip the log in page / the admin module? I use LS on a tablet offline and I´m the only user, so the log in process is not necessary. Is there a simple way to achieve this (I´m not a developer)?

cheers,
Fabian

Hello,

1) Create an "myaccess.php" file
2) Copy the following code and edit the 3 first variables (username, password & path)
3) Place the file somewhere on your server and access the file via your browser

Code:

<?php 
$username = 'admin';
$password = 'password';
$where = 'example.org/limesurvey';  /* yourdomain.tld/your_folder   */
?>

<head><title>Skip LS Login</title>
<meta charset="utf-8"><meta name="robots" content="none" />
<!--  Change for your correct path to jquery file -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.5/jquery.min.js"></script>
</head>

<form id="loginform" name="loginform" action="https://<?php echo $where ?>/index.php/admin/authentication/sa/login" method="post">
<div class='messagebox ui-corner-all'>
        <div class='header ui-widget-header'>Please log in first.</div>
        <br />
        <ul style='width: 500px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto'>
            <li><label for='user'>Username</label>
                <input name='user' id='user' type='text' size='40' maxlength='40' value=<?php echo $username ?>  /></li>
            <li><label for='password'>Password</label>
                <input name='password' id='password' type='password' size='40' maxlength='40' value=<?php echo $password ?> /></li>
            <li><label for='loginlang'>Language</label>
<select id='loginlang' name='loginlang' >
<option value='en' selected>English</option>
</select>
            </li>
        </ul>
    <p><input type='hidden' name='action' value='login' />
        <input class='action' type='submit' value='Login' /><br />&nbsp;
        <br/>
                    <a href='https://<?php echo $where ?>/index.php/admin/authentication/sa/forgotpassword'>Forgot your password?</a><br />&nbsp;
                </p><br />
    </div>
</form>

<script  type="text/javascript" >
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
document.loginform.submit();});
</script>

Hi,

thanks for your quick response!
I created the "myaccess.php" as described. When I open the file via my browser the Skip LS Login page appears. So is it still necessary to log in? The only convenience would be not entering username and password... However, when I try to log in the error message "server not found" shows up (the tablet works offline with a local webserver).

thats what I changed in the php file:
<?php
$username = 'admin';
$password = '12345';
$where = 'https://localhost:8080/bef1/limesurvey'; /* yourdomain.tld/your_folder */
?>
...

replace
$where = 'https://localhost:8080/bef1/limesurvey';

with
$where = 'localhost:8080/bef1/limesurvey';

Note:
1) for jquery (only necesary for autosubmission) you can try to link to your local file:
<script type="text/javascript" src=https://<?php echo $where ?>/scripts/jquery/jquery.js></script>

2) this code normally works for ≥2.00 LS versions and must be adapted for previous releases (eg. 1.92)

Hi,

Does anyone know how to pass parameters (user/password) through URL? I have tried https://mylink/index.php/admin/authentication/sa/login?user=admins&password=1234 but it did not work.

Thanks

researchguru:

In url you can pass parameter for a get request.
To post datas, you must use a form.

www.w3schools.com/tags/ref_httpmethods.asp

BTW: the message you just bump was 4 years old. I suggest you filter your google search using the date parameter (less than one year). In general, it should give you more pertinent results.

Thank you LouisGac,

Basically, www.w3schools.com says the link for auto login should be like this: example.com/index.php/admin/authenticati...=admin&password=1234 , which does not work for me.

well...

I was not saying that but indeed what I was saying do not apply to LS since we allow autologin by url params....
:confused:

For one time password:

Thanks, "one-time password" is not a suitable option for us, as we want to use it permanently. Also, I searched on Limesurvey forums, and couldn't find any new post related to this issue.

I'm very interested in a quick solution to skip the login page like this one but it seems like in version 3.19.1 of Limesurvey Ben_v code is not working anymore, as it's redirecting to the LS login page instead. Does anyone know how to update the code for use with this version?

A permanent link for auto login by email :blink:

Since email are not secure by default : it's a serious security issue.

Else : all can be done with plugin : see gitlab.com/SondagesPro/coreAndTools/linkPasswordUser sample for 2.6lts
