Hi,
I'm trying to allow an easy way for users who are authenticated within a portal (Plone) to be able to seemlessly be able to enter a private blog system (login required) without having to re-enter their UN / PW into B2evo. I have a method in the Plone portal to be able to 'get' the users UN / PW and dynamically add this to a URL which the oortal users could click on, which would work as long as the UN/PW are the same in the Plone portal and B2Evo, if of course B2Evo can accomidate this.
Standard HTTP Authentication (via a URL) sometimes works like this
http://USERNAME:PASSWORD@www.domain.com/
this does not work with B2Evo, I'm wondering what might.
Thanks for any attention!
Just pass them as "login" and "pwd" (Phoenix) or "log" and "pwd" params (0.9.x).
Take a look at the demo, it's used there for the front page links.
But: this is not a clean way, as the password is in an URL then (that the user might copy and paste somewhere)..
