My b2evolution Version: Not Entered
Hi,
I am building a Mambo site and need a blog like this to go with it. All I need to do however, is have it automatically take the users login and password from the Mambo site, into the blog. I couldn't find the exact answer elsewhere on here, so here is the question anyway!
Has anyone written a script to do this? Is there some other way to do it?
You can't have users log in and type passwords to every part of your site!
Thank you very much in advance.

You'll need to create a plugin like the ldap_plugin, which authenticated users against your Mambo DB.
Then when they log into b2evo they get created if the account and password matches the Mambo ones.
LoginAttempt is the event to hook in the plugin.
You may want to start at: http://manual.b2evolution.net/CreatingPlugin.
This question came up already in the forums several times, so searching here may help, too. Taking the ldap_plugin as a reference will be useful, too.
