documentation and third party apps
I've been testing community on my web site to create personalized content pages for users. So far it was worked pretty well but can't find any documentation so it has been pretty much trial and error. I'm especially looking for docs on how to authenticate or write plugins to usthenticate my other apps through community.

Any guidance would be helpful.

Hi Andre,

If your other apps have integrated with a plugin manager like GT plugin manager, it would be easy to do. Then you can create a plugin like the plugins of the Community for LinkSQl, Forum, etc.

But it they don't have any "plugin" feature, we should hard code for these apps. I am integrating GT community with 4 other apps but not yet done :-(

Cheers,

They are web chat, image gallery, poems and lyric, and penpal sites. They are both Perl and PHP and of course, they does not have the "plugin" manager :(

Its not really that hard. The main thing you have to do is lookup the login cookie, which shouldn't be a problem. I've done a similar project for someone, and it was a lot easier than I was expecting Cool

Yes, just lookup the cookie is not much to do but I have to import users and and update their profiles and some apps are not on the same site :-(

Thanks!
