WAPI status check
Feb 7 2009, 12:49 AM EST | Post edited: Feb 7 2009, 12:49 AM EST
I want my users know whether I'm online or not. for example when i logged in it returns the value 1 so i can process the value to an image or text using php.

I also want my app know whether im sign in on wetpaint. for example at wetpaint wiki, when you sign in you'll able to see the Sign in:exoot(sign out) at the top of the wiki. i want to add that feature in my site when returns a values that can be process to output as text or images.

In other word, i want an API hich tell me whether im online or not. I can do this check if I able to access the cookie, but it seems like it only allow .wetpaint.com to access it.

Help pls
Thanks in advance! Do you find this valuable?

Hello,

While the Wetpaint Injected product features EasyEdit functionality you can embed on your own site, it does not extend a Create Your Own (your_site.wetpaint.com) site. That is to say, you cannot use the Wetpaint Injected API to verify if a user in logged in to a .wetpaint.com website.

If you do decide to use the Wetpaint Injected product and integrate it with a site you own the domain for, then you'll have full control over the cookie values, and can therefore check whether a users session has been established, etc.

Thanks for the question!
