texte = In those instructions I failed to mention the fact that WebCatalog recognizes only ONE users.db -- the one that comes with webcatalog. It also recognizes only one standardconversions.db and one errormessages.db and one triggers.db. In other words, webcatalog cannot find any db's with these names unless they are specifically located inside the webcatalog folder ...Therefore, you cannot simply duplicate the MultiGroupChecker file and use the duplicate as I explained, you also have to change all the users.db references in your SpecialMGC file to some other db name -- such as newusers.db for example -- then duplicate the users.db, and rename it newusers.db, and put it in the same folder as your templates.Doing this will cause the SpecialMGC file to refer to the newusers.db instead of the users.db, and this is exactly what you need it to do.:) >Hi there, > >I have an authentication problem.
