Custom Authentication | Forum

Hi all,


I need to customize Oxwall authentication.

User shoud be authenticated using other service (outside Oxwall) instead of local database authentication.

Can you tell me related codes which handle user authentication and codes to control user session on each page?


Any help would be appreciated. 


Thank you.

I'm working on a project to embed Oxwall to a portal.

Any web site embedded to this portal should implement single sign on,

Basically I have to disable Oxwall login page and use the portal authentication instead.

I need to customize codes to handle login and session management.

Where I can find these codes?

This sounds very interesting Bastian! I've been thinking to have single sign on for my domain emails. Interested to hear how you get on.

You should develop a new plugin using the following authentication string:

OW_Auth::getInstance()->login($userId);
