Third-party-login possible?

[mattanja]

Hi,

I have a request from a customer to include a user forum into our existing software. We have a user database that must be used for the forum authentication also, preferably of course without having to log-in again.

Is it possible with xenForo to do some kind of third-party login or implement a custom login method? Or are there any defaults that could be used like openid or similar?

Best regards,
Matt

You'll need to sync accounts to XenForo (a lot of XenForo depends on the xf_user records), but you can easily write authentication methods to interact with both XenForo and your system.

Check out BD's API - maybe he could modify it for you or give you advice.....

What third party login do you guys accept?

Any 3rd party login will need to be custom coded unless you have imported from one of the supported software.

Here are the only two addons that offer second level login.

EDIT: Nvm, read your post wrong. But maybe these addon's code will help you.
