3rd party user login/registration...

[emphram]

Hello,

this is my first post and I hope I chose the correct sub for it. I just installed the latest stable release of phpBB 3.2 on my dev forum, and its working. I wish to integrate it into a custom CMS, that has it's own session handling. We already have our own user login and registration.

I assume the process requires creating duplicate entries in the phpBB user table(s) (or taking our user table and expanding the field set to match phpBB's?), and disabling the login/registration from the board somehow.

I guess I am asking for some sort of guide or tutorial that in general terms describes what needs to be done to accomplish this. I hope this isn't too large of a task.

Thanks in advance!

There are a few tutorials about that.
