hello,
i have a website that uses asp.net "membership" and "profiles", so members have been registered and authenticated.
I have now added a website Snitz forum as one of the options from my homepage menu.
Everything works perfectly,..........however, as it stands, all my members will have to register and authenticate twice....once for my website and once for the forum.
Is there a way that I could bypass the whole registration sign up process in snitz, and have members user names from my main site carried over into snitz forum?
or, if not, at least for new members in the future, is there a way to tie up my website registration with the snitz registration so that they only have to input details once?
thanks in advance |

You would need to write a custom membershipProvider for .net which uses the snitz database members table. If you check out the beta of the .net version of Snitz, it has a snitz membeship provider which you should be able to use.

Sure. At the end of your sites reg simply open the snitz DB and manually insert a new record with their data.
You don't need much info. Name, e-mail and password should do the trick. The user can always update their forum profile. You could also make a little "add me to forum" page using a logged in site members info for that that have been site members but not form members yet.

that would serve to add them to the DB, but it would not help with single login |

A mod that would do that for us would be so cool and it would open up new opportunities to use Snitz with other applications.
