Help with fudapi and forum_login ... [message #29576]

I am in the process of integrating FUDforum to an existing application which has its own user database. I have two scenarios to manage:

New Users
Existing Users

New users are easy - during the registration process they are added to the FUDforum database using fudapi. When an existing user logs in, the process checks to see if the user has already been added to the FUDforum database using fudapi, if not, the user is added.

Once a user is logged in to my application, I also want to log the user into FUDforum using external_fud_login(). This seems to work and I get what appears to be a valid FUD session id. However, when I go to the actual forum (via a link on a menu), FUDforum does not recognize the user as logged in. Should the URL be constructed in a specific manner? I thought adding "?S=xxxxxxxxxx" with the value of the session id would work but it didn't seem to have any affect.

I have read through the API and external login code a number of times and searched the forum but can't find any references to what I may be doing wrong.

Once the user is logged in via my normal login process, I want the forum to work just it would if the user had logged into the forum as a standalone application. Is this possible?

Thanks,

Mike
