Hi!

 

Thanks for the awesome integration and help! 3 questions:

 

1 : in the ipb.php file, is

 

$ipb_name = "ipb";

 

referring to the IPB table name inside the database, or the actual database name that IPB uses?

 

2 : I have a question about logins. From what I understand:

 

Users registering on IPB side will be redirected to WHMCS registration side.

 

Users registered on WHMCS will be able to log into IPB side.

 

Now if WHMCS only allows paying customers to be able to create a WHMCS account & login, is there a way to allow IPB to allow regular registrations also? So that anyone with a WHMCS account can log into IPB, and anyone without a WHMCS account can register on the IPB side.

 

3 : Is there a way to add people who login or register via WHMCS to a group or have some custom field with their profiles so that it is easy to know who registered via WHMCS and who registered outside of it through IPB?

 

Thanks!

  1. The $ipb_name is the (My)SQL database name where the IPB tables are located.
  2. With the current coding: No. The authentication part needs to be rebuilded to accomplish this.
  3. You could accomplish this by doing a simple SQL-select from the right IPB table and compare the email address in WHMCS with the one in IPB.

No I don't think so. You should be able to use more then 1 type of login.

 

I was under the impression that when someone tried to create an account on the forum, that it pushes them to whmcs to create an account instead. What would happen then if someone uses FaceBook connect, would they get re-directed to WHMCS to create an account also?

 

Thanks

The only way a user will have access with this mod is if they have a account in your WHMCS. If you set WHMCS the way I have it I dont allow non-service people to register. That means they have to be a real client with a service they bought from me to get forum access.

Can't put this working.

 

I have made all the steps but when i create the user on whmcs anything happens on ipb.

 

No errors are displayed on whmcs or ipb, don't know what to do to fix this.

 

The module allows you to log in to IPB with your WHMCS credentials. When you log in for the first time with your WHMCS credentials and there isn't an account in IPB, it will create one.

When I login with the client account it doesn't create the account.

 

Its a test and new account, without any errors.

 

On IPB when I go to WHMCS module and click on the diagnosis button it's shows that the auth file is missing but its on the right place "./sources/loginauth/whmcs/auth.php".

Ok so i downloaded this for my website and no matter what i try i simply cannot get it working.

 

WHMCS v5.0.3 and IPB v3.2.3

 

I have followed the installation instructions down to a T and i have checked API access and all values under the configs.

 

Is this addon supported on WHMCS 5?
