Xoops Bridge Beta 2

[Orstio]

For the cookie settings issue, make sure that "Enable local storage of cookies" is turned off in SMF.

[lesterspiff]

It's off. Like I said before, I made sure I was doing everything exactly as it's described in Broham's post on page 2 of this thread before posting my problem.

What is your setting for subdomain independent cookies in SMF?

Hiyas, I've used SMF before heaps of times and i love it. I just tried the Bridge out and it's kewl. One problem though... this is what I did......

I installed it as normal, gave the proper access permissions via the XOOPS admin area and as I logged in with a couple of accounts, the follwoing happened....

When i logged in with the admin account, it worked, but then i forgot to logout from that before logging in with a test account, and as i logged in with the test account, it took me to the forums under the admin account name. Is this just because I'm using the same browser session? I mean there isn't a security risk??

Also, once i logged out of the admin account, I logged in with the test account which has been on my xoops for ages, but the SMF said that there is no such user....it's not recognised in the SMF... how do I get the SMF to recognise current XOOPS members?? Both the SMF and XOOPS are on different DB's... do I need to have them both on the same DB but with different prefix's or somethin?

sorry if i'm a bit unclear on this, i've got hte flu atm and i'm all over the place lol. ty in advance

hi again, i thought someone may have replied , anyway.....the main thing i need to know is how do i get SMF to recognise current XOOPS members ?

I logged in with a current test account and SMF didn't recognise it. ty in advance again.

[Irc_Sandman]

Hi again, I just tried something, I registered the test account in the SMF with same name and pass, then logged in via the SMF login bridge block, it logged me into the XOOPS and SMF , when i logged out of the SMF it logged me out of XOOPS, BUT... when i logged out from XOOPS side, it still had me logged in to the SMF. Then when I logged in to XOOPS side with my admin account, it took me to the SMF but as the other test account. I'm lost and i'm getting annoyed with it all. Can someone help plz? ty in advance.

Should I just install SMF 1.1.2 on the same database as XOOPS and see what happens? or maybe i should just tell users if they wanna use the smf forums, they'll have to log in an extra time . i'm lost.

[Orstio]

BUT... when i logged out from XOOPS side, it still had me logged in to the SMF.

That is correct.  Xoops has no way to tell SMF that the user logged out.  Unpublish the logout link in Xoops.

[Irc_Sandman]

yep that's what I was thinking of doing regarding the logging out problem. thanks

Any idea on how I can get the SMF to recognise current XOOPS users without getting the current XOOPS users to register in SMF with their same name and pass?

[Irc_Sandman]

Another problem I've encountered.....

I tried to register a new account from the SMF Bridge login block from XOOPS front end... it registered the account within SMF, but did not recognise it in XOOPS, either as an inactive user or after i'd activated it.

Once i registered and activated the test account, I was logged into SMF, i went back to the XOOPS front page and it showed me as a guest. I double checked the XOOPS users list and the test account isn't there. I'm lost. Any ideas ??
I really want to use SMF with XOOPS but this is really annoying me. Anyway thanks in advance again

[Orstio]

I think you are confusing registration and login.  They are two very different things.

Registration is creating a new user.  Login is logging an existing user into the system.

Irc_Sandman, did the test account get activated through an activation email or by the admin?  Also, are you using Xoops 2.0.16? 
The users first sign in after completing registration and activating should pass the information into Xoops and successfully log into both.  If that isn't happening for you, you'll need to play with settings.

[Irc_Sandman]

Hi

I'm using XOOPS 2.0.16.

I created the test account via email. I had logged in to xoops with it, and it showed me as logged in in the SMF 1.1.2 but when i went back to xoops it showed me as logged out.

Anyway I've updagted the forums to SMF 1.1.3 now and apparently that isn't working correctly with SMF 1.1.3 is that right ?

so at moment i've got the main xoops site and my SMF forums separate until the bridge can recognise SMF 1.1.3

[xkiller213]

hey all... i'm having some problems with Xoops 2.0.17 and SMF 1.1.3

When i try to login with my SMF username/password in Xoops they tell me

Sorry, you don't have the permission to access this area.

If the page does not automatically reload, please click here

anything can be done?

[Orstio]

The bridge page needs to be viewable by Anonymous users.

[xkiller213]

hmm... that has so far solved my problem.. but next problem... the bridge login logs me into SMF but not into xoops...

[Orstio]

Yes, SMF 1.1.3 kills the Xoops session.   This has been posted in this topic several times already.

I may have a solution where SMF uses the Xoops authentication system, but it has not yet been tested.

[xkiller213]

oh... ok... so i'll wait for you to release a new version for us anyway thanks for the quick reply!

[broham]

I may have a solution where SMF uses the Xoops authentication system, but it has not yet been tested.

I'm looking forward to this solution, too...

Will this be available any time within the next 10 days?
