active8 Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 Hi, I have recently had WHMCS integrated into the design of my joomla site but I would also like to get Login sharing working so that users once registered through WHMCS can login through joomla login and access either PHPBB3 forums or Fireboard/Kunena forum component for Joomla 1.5 Thanks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Chris. Your best idea here is writing an Authentication plugin. What i have been templted to do so many times is use the JFusion bridge. JFusion will take care of user creation, synchronisation and dual login across multiple softwares. You select a master software for all user management and JFusion automatically updates the "slave" softwares. Its made for this task of linking Joomla! to an external db. So you would get WHMCS -> Joomla <-> Fireboard 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
active8 Posted February 23, 2009 Author Share Posted February 23, 2009 its that easy then? or do i need to code a load of stuff to get it to work? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Chris. I have not used the application myself. But if you install it and read it there should be no coding. Just plugging stuff into the Joomla! component. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbravo2 Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 I'm in the process of playing with JFusion - doesn't seem like there will be a drop in solution for using WHMCS 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbravo2 Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/access-&-security/authentication-external/3444/details Take a look at that - much easier than writing a bridge for JFusion - this will use the WHMCS database for authenticating users 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
