First tell me are you using a CMS or your site is custom.
Try using jsConnect and take a look at http://vanillaforums.com/blog/help/implementing-jsconnect-single-signon-on/
@mega6382 its a custom site

I'm trying to understand the "authentication url". I've coded up a php script that gets called when my users press the link to go to the "forum". it calls that script and that script displays some jsonp stuff in what I assume is the correct format. But that's a display, I mean it gets echoed onto the page displayed. Isn't it supposed to be written into something located at the authentication url?
I still haven't got a clear picture (boy a picture would help). Maybe a data flow diagram. Anything that would clarify it. The documents have said "this is the only file you need: functions.jsconnect.php". I don't think that's true. I think you need something more.
Please help. I promise that if you help me figure it out, I will propose a re-write that clarifies this.
Thanks for anything you can add.
