- how to get frontend username inside plugin code

[mikemcvey]

Hi,

I am writing a download plugin and want to be able to track downloads by FrontEndUsers - username.
I know the username is in the page template and in the gCms object but unsure how to access them.

Any ideas?

Code: Select all

global $gCms;
$feu =& $gCms->modules['FrontEndUsers']['object'];
echo $feu->LoggedInName();
