I have an existing website i would like to integrate this forum with. My existing site already has a username and password. Is there any integration tools or scripts or a way to integrate my existing username and passwords into your username and password fields. Or a way to go and manually run them through the usercode function to get the correct usercode and password. Thanks ahead of time! |
We already do this, but it is only really suited for someone who is comfortable with SQL Server, triggers etc.
We have our own login, which authenticates with our own tables (like you do)
This login page sets the cookies which WWF uses. Once these cookies are set, there is no prompting for a second login.
The complicated part is the trigger to replicate our "user data" to the Author table in WWF. We do this with a trigger for INSERT in our own table ... which populates across to WWF. With this method there is no need to worry about passwords etc etc as all login/encryption is handles by our tables ... we only use the wwfAuthor table for the "AuthID" for association with postings etc.
