Hello,

I looked everywhere for this simple question, but could not find an answer so far. I would like to grant access to certain user accounts to 2 (parent) portals of a DNN instance. I think it must be possible to share such accounts, but how? If I try to create the same username on the second portal, the system says it exists already, therefore it must know about the users in the other portal.

How can I make this simple operation?

Thanks,

Franco

Franco,

There are several ways to share users across portals.

  1. Create the user account on a new portal with EXCACTLY THE SAME INformATION as the user account on another portal.
  2. In the database add the UserID for the user and the portals you want the user to have access to.
  3. DNNMasters.com has a pretty robust solution for sharing users across portals.

Dear Stuart,

thank you for your very useful message, which I found only now (for some reason I must have missed the notification of your answer). For point 2 you mean executing some sql query? Can you give me an example, perhaps?

Best,

Franco
