Hey all,
Currently i'm into a little project involving a 3rd party forum software that does not have any built in compataibilty with dotnetnuke. Using iframes and a litlte messing, i've got it running perfectly within the DNN site, but for ease of use i'd like to make loging into it a 1step process, at the moment a user has to log into DNN, then log into the forum. I re-wrote the login page of hte forum itself so that i can call a function in it such as
logmein(username,password)
and it all works just fine if i pre-define a username and password. the forum in DNN is just written in VB and asp, its all done via include's such as:
<!--#include file="common.asp" -->
Is it possible to mesh this style of app with DNN, all i need to be able to do is include my login.asp file, then find the right place in DNN's code whereby to make the call to the function inside that included asp page. Is this possible? how and where would i make that sort of change.
And before you suggest it, the business wants to use this forum, they have paid for it and like it, its not my choice, but since i have to work with it, i want to make the experience for the site visitiors the best possible.
