Hello!

I have a site created in CMS joomla.
Now I want to install b2evolution but I don’t know if it is possible integrate b2evolution with my site in joomla
(to make login in b2evolution on the basis of login with in joomla).

This post helped me very.
With this information already I obtain to know if the user exists in the database of b2evolution.

Now I have another problem.
What do I make so that users continue on (login) when they go for b2evolution (assumed that they had made login in the Joomla)?
Have I to create an instance of class Session?

You mean without being prompt with the b2evo login screen?

Then there's the AlternateAuthentication hook for this, where you would have to call $Session->set_User().

Already I made small script (index_joomla_b2evo.php)
to serve of bridge between joomla and b2evo.

<?php
require_once dirname(__FILE__).'/conf/_config.php';
require_once $inc_path.'_main.inc.php';
include_once ("./plugins/_ldap.plugin.php");

$form_vars = ${"HTTP_".$HTTP_SERVER_VARS["REQUEST_METHOD"]."_VARS"};
$parm = $form_vars['parm'] ;
$check = $form_vars['check'] ;

$url = explode("|", $parm);
$f_username = $url[0];
$f_userpw = $url[1];

$ldap = new ldap_plugin();
$dados =Array("login"=>$f_username, "pass"=>$f_userpw,"pass_md5"=>$f_userpw);
$ldap->LoginAttempt($dados);

$db_row = $DB->get_var("SELECT * FROM evo_users WHERE user_login ='".$f_username."' and user_pass='".$f_userpw. "'" );
$User = new User($db_row);
$Session = new Session();
$Session->set_User($User);

header("Location: index.php");
?>

This script has a “error” that not yet obtained to decide
When I execute script browser presents me it following information:
---------------------------------------------------
An unexpected error has occured!
If this error persits, please report it to the administrator.

Go back to home page

Additional information about this error:
Requested Group from T_groups without ID!

--------------------------------------
Already I tried to decide this, but I did not obtain.
If I am not in error this message is presented when control to create the session for the user (to $Session->set_User (to $User);

They can help to me to exceed it this problem?
Tanks one more time.

Ok, this is totally off the top of my head but your code could be tidied a tad (I don't think you want to be calling the ldap plugin though, I think you need to be checking against your joomala user table and creating a new user)

<?php
require_once dirname(__FILE__).'/conf/_config.php';
require_once $inc_path.'_main.inc.php';

param( 'parm', 'string' );
param( 'check', 'string' );

$url = explode("|", $parm);
$f_username = $url[0];
$f_userpw = $url[1];

$dados =Array("login"=>$f_username, "pass"=>$f_userpw,"pass_md5"=> md5($f_userpw) );
$Plugins->call_method( $Plugins->get_by_code( 'evo_ldap_auth'), 'LoginAttempt', $dados );

$db_row = $DB->query('SELECT * FROM T_users WHERE user_login =\''.$f_username.'\' and user_pass=\''.$f_userpw. '\'' );
$User = & new User($db_row);

$Session->set_User($User);

header_redirect('index.php');
?>

I do not understand the line
$Plugins->call_method( $Plugins->get_by_code( 'evo_ldap_auth'), 'LoginAttempt', $dados );

Already I tried this script, I continue the same with error:
-----------------------------------------
An unexpected error has occured!

If this error persits, please report it to the administrator.

Why do you call (and even use) the ldap plugin??

The error is because of the fallback-Group, which the plugin uses, to assign a new user to and this uses $Settings->get('newusers_grp_ID') as default. Probably this return NULL/0 or something alike.

It's not meant to be used that way at all. You should rather create a new plugin and just install it...

btw: who's meant to call index_joomla_b2evo.php in your case?!

11 Jul 24, 2006 21:41

I don’t know anything of plugins.
How do I can create one plugin?
Are there some documentation and examples?
What does plugins function of b2evo?

(btw: who's meant to call index_joomla_b2evo.php in your case?!)

Because it is the first file that must be loaded when comes of joomla.

Here's some documentation:
http://manual.b2evolution.net/CreatingPlugin

But the LDAP plugin itself is the best documentation in your case - that's what I've meant to say originally.

btw: who's meant to call index_joomla_b2evo.php in your case?!

Because it is the first file that must be loaded when comes of joomla.

Why would you want to have to call/link to a special file, instead of using b2evolution in the normal way?

If you create a plugin like the LDAP one, b2evo will trigger your plugin on the events that you hook (that means which are detected as a function of your plugin during install, or when you click "Reload plugins" on the b2evo plugins admin page - useful while developping and adding a new method).

it is truth.

Only now and that I am to learn to work with plugins.

14 Jul 25, 2006 01:29

which is the name of methodo executed before login form ?

15 Jul 25, 2006 19:08

Please read this thread again, from the beginning - with what you have learned in mind.. :)

I read the posts on how to integrate login at b2evolution with joomla, which is the situation i want to fix.

I downloaded the ldap plugin code like you suggested, but am pretty new to php, and need some kind of direction to get the plugin working for me.

What i want is that if someone logs in at the joomla end of my site, he is not prompted to login again at the b2evolution end.

Moreso, i would be glad if registration at b2evolution would automatically update joomla database tables, because I don't want to have orphaned user details which exist in one portion of the site but not in the other.

Thanks in advance... Ab :p
