Elkarte + VTiger
Hi folks,
we need to integrate a discussion forum into an vtiger installation.. The forum shall be accessible for all users who are logged in to vtiger's "customer view".
Vtiger needs to be the master, containing all user data and role information (well except Elk's master user). Changes in vtiger shall be mapped into Elk.
The idea is to perfom the updates to the user data directly into the database, say, by a nightly cron job.
Regarding login / logout .... we would actually like to see a single sign on also controlled by vtiger. If i remeber correctly the situation of ancient SMF 1.1.x, it might be able to simulate a login/logout by simply setting a flag in an appropriate variable of the database, which obviously would make it easy to realize a single sign on procedure at least as long as the applications reside on the same host.
Is this still possible with Elk ?
Any suggestions, ideas, maybe even examples?
