Creating a single login

thebasicflaw

So back in August of 2005 I had been told about vanilla and was floored. I was at that time working on a site that needed a message board. We already had a user login and we were wondering if it would be possible to have a single login. Meaning, that when a user signed up for our site, they would automatically have a vanilla login as well. At the time there was no add or feature for this. I was wondering if this had changed at all. I'm not much of a programmer so I don't even know where I would begin to write a script to write into the DB table where vanilla stores users names.

All of vanillas classes which deal with user management are seperate from the vanilla core. If you check out the People folder in your \library\ you can see how it deals with various things. Perhaps the easiest way would be for you to hook into this and run the necessary functions whenever a user signs up to your site and leave vanilla to do the necessary work. That depends how 'not much of a programmer' you are though...
