Hi,

Does anyone know if the forum login can be used as a general members area where the login section can be on the homepage and other pages can be in the forum area protected by the forum login?

I currently have a site using the wwpassword protected login and have just added a forum to the site. Now my users must login seperately to access each. I would like to have just one database and one login area.

thanks,

bear with me....

It could be done if both logins accessed the same database for checking the login.

Eventually I plan on doing that for our site, but it would require us write some new code to do that. We plan on using the existing forum user database for the whole site eventually.

Do a search on the subject. Someone else was implementing this as well.
