Ultra-Simple "Log in through Steam" (PHP Class)

[jessecar96]

Does this still work anymore? When I sign in it doesnt return the steamID64 when I use "echo SteamSignIn::validate();"

I'm a little confused on this. I'm trying to set up a sign in through steam website. if you can help add me on steam. https://steamcommunity.com/id/jessecar96

I dont understand...

Can somebody in simple english tell me what this does?

It allows you to use this http://steamcommunity.com/dev on your webpage.

In other words, if you're building a web page and would want people to log in, you can use steam for that. Thats about it, in simple english.

So how can i use this script?

I write SteamSignIn::genUrl(); after the script and i don`t see no buttons or links.
As i saw at the first post i don`t need to install openid on my site for this to work?

[WiKer]

hurray,

i think i found how

$steam_login_verify = SteamSignIn::validate();
if(!empty($steam_login_verify))
{
echo "success + $steam_login_verify";
}
else
{
$steam_sign_in_url = SteamSignIn::genUrl();
echo "<a href=\"$steam_sign_in_url\"><img src='http://cdn.steamcommunity.com/public/images/signinthroughsteam/sits_large_noborder.png' /></a>";
}

I'm OK with php. Not an expert, but I'd love to use this on my Wordpress site, Valve News. Can anyone lend a hand? Ill give you a cookie (rep)

Like he said, check against the steam XML feed to see if it exists.
If it doesn't, that XML feed should 404 on you.

Dude I have been struggling with this for AGES as I'm new to php. I just have to say thank you and I love you =)

And Wiker all you need to do for the button itself is put <?php echo SteamSignIn::genUrl(); ?> in the a href="" link which would be around the image ... Though you probably figured that out =P

I am using OpenID, and if you COULD connect Steam, what would the Trusted Site be?

this method is perfect! thanks!
I've tried other versions, but they won't work (throws some errors like OHMYGODTHISISNOTOPENIDPROVIDER) or requires Perl.

Hello Syntax_Error! I'd love to talk to you about this, would it be possible that I can get your steam username/email/preferred contact preference?
