Sessions for show if and allowing access

I am having a great deal of trouble with show if rules and allowing access.
Our site has a log in page (attached), member directory, member posts and custom pages.
The member posts contain ads, news and events and I used datassist a few times to generate search and results pages. We also have a classified form which is joined with the posts.
The log in page shows session id which is what seems like I should be able to use the show if rule everywhere. Show is customerid matches the session of the user that is logged in.
The Auctions.php is working and using
<?php
if (isset($_SESSION['directoryid']) && $_SESSION['directoryid'] == $row_WADAevents['customerid']) {
?>

I tried to use the webassist show utility tool on the Accomplishments-Updates.php page both with Session directoryid and id and neither works.

the code for the show if looks corrtect:

<?php

  if ("".$row_pages['customerid']  ."" == "".$_SESSION['directoryid']  ."") {  // WebAssist Show If

?>

so the question is what are the values of the $row_pages['customerid'] and $_SESSION['directoryid']

add the following code jsut before the show if code to output the values:

<?php echo("rs: ".$row_pages['customerid']."|| session: ".$_SESSION['directoryid'].""); ?>

this will help troubleshoot.

Here is the page: Accomplishments-Updates.php

Here is the output: rs: 6246|| session:

ok, so thats working. it's not showing the form because you are not logged in the recordset value does not equal the session

I am logged in - see attached screen shot. I am not sure if you are stating that everything is working I am just not logged in or you are trying to tell me something I am not understand.
Attached shows I am logged in as this user.

what do you get if you add a var dump of the session contents:

<?php car_dump($_SESSION); ?>

array(15) { ["WAENCRYPTEDRETURNUSED"]=> bool(false) ["WAENCRYPTEDRETURNSUCCESS"]=> bool(false) ["EditReturn"]=> string(39) "/PrideFarms/Accomplishments-Updates.php" ["WADbSearch1_ads_horses_results"]=> string(0) "" ["WADbSearch1_custom_pages_results"]=> string(24) " AND (customerid = 6246)" ["theme"]=> string(13) "Barrel-Racing" ["SI"]=> string(2) "15" ["WAVT_postssearch_Errors"]=> string(0) "" ["WADbSearch1_posts_results"]=> string(22) " AND (interestid = 15)" ["directoryid"]=> string(4) "6246" ["email"]=> string(22) "greenforluck@yahoo.com" ["accesslevel"]=> NULL ["communityid"]=> string(1) "0" ["contact"]=> string(14) "Bryel Mulligan" ["membership_type"]=> string(26) "HotSite Hot Marketing Plus" }

Accomplishments-Updates.php

ok, so according to this output the community ID session is 0:
["communityid"]=> string(1) "0"

which does not equal the value in the recordset:
rs: 6246

I added the vardump on this page to see if we can figure out why this page is working ads-events-news-featuredFW.php and the other pages are not.

It prints this: array(15) { ["WAENCRYPTEDRETURNUSED"]=> bool(false) ["WAENCRYPTEDRETURNSUCCESS"]=> bool(false) ["EditReturn"]=> string(21) "/PrideFarms/index.php" ["WADbSearch1_ads_horses_results"]=> string(23) " AND (customerid = 226)" ["WADbSearch1_custom_pages_results"]=> string(24) " AND (customerid = 6246)" ["theme"]=> string(10) "PrideFarms" ["SI"]=> string(2) "15" ["WAVT_postssearch_Errors"]=> string(0) "" ["WADbSearch1_posts_results"]=> string(22) " AND (interestid = 15)" ["directoryid"]=> string(4) "6246" ["email"]=> string(22) "greenforluck@yahoo.com" ["accesslevel"]=> NULL ["communityid"]=> string(1) "0" ["contact"]=> string(14) "Bryel Mulligan" ["membership_type"]=> string(26) "HotSite Hot Marketing Plus" }

Why does it show customerid=226 and customerid =6246?
What can we do to get the session for customer id to work ON EVERY PAGE?
