hi guys

just downloaded this forum php script 'cause i'd like to offer my site users an effective way to communciate each other. at a first glance, this php app seems to be great, even more than what i'm looking for perhaps. Shocked
in short: i do already have my own user master data in my php/mysql app, so i don't want my users to register and login twice...!
Is this documented somewhere? And, if not, how difficult this could be to implement in your opinion? Rolling Eyes
My idea would be to create two entries when a user registers in my site: one being in my own user tbl and the other with basic info in fudforum user tbl. Second step would be to automatically authenticate in fudforum whan passing from my app to fudforum.

Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

Thanx.

Ale

Check the user_login() function that will allow you to login a user into the forum. As far as sharing auth data, you can use FUDAPI to create/update users in the forum based on your existing user database.

Did you ever get anywhere with Wordpress-FudForum integration?

It should be possible to write a WordPress Plug-in to authenticate users against the FUDForum database.

Such a fudforum-authentication pluging can be based on one of these:

http://dev.wp-plugins.org/browser/http-authentication/trunk/
http://dev.wp-plugins.org/browser/imap-authentication/trunk/

If you guys are willing to help, we can work together to get the job done.

Best regards.

You can pretty much copy the code from the forum's user_login() function.

It could be great, or for webcalendar and gallery Very Happy

Okay, i'm slowly chipping away at this... I'm running into an issue with functions being declared multiple times since i'm drawing part of the FUDforum headers and footers with the wordpress funtions. I require_once('wp_config.php') the wordpress file in my GLOBALS.php so i can use the wordpress functions.

I have the plugin working to the point that i can login on the wordpress login page using my FUDforum credentials, and it logs me into the forum and wordpress.

I think the issue i'm running into now, is that i'm trying to include two scrips, both the

forum/scripts/forum_login.php
forum/scripts/fudapi.inc.php

Which must be internally including something twice. This happens when i view the forum pages that also include the wordpress wp-config.php so i can draw the headers...

The reason i'm using both, is that after i use forum_login.php to authenticate, i need to grab the user data so i can get the email address and create the user in wordpress.

$fud_user_info = fud_fetch_user($uid);

the specific error message is...

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare fud_sql_error_handler() (previously declared in /var/www/vhosts/nacuso.org/subdomains/test/httpdocs/forum/scripts/forum_login.php:18) in /var/www/vhosts/nacuso.org/subdomains/test/httpdocs/forum/include/core.inc on line 143


any help would be greatly appreciated. I have attached the wordpress plugin super-alpha.

ok, i seem to have fixed that specific error by changing the order of the includes in GLOBALS.php

i still cant include both scripts, but i'm working on it...
