joomla dotproject integration

[settojirao]

Hi all,

I am new to joomla. I want to integrate joomla with dotproject, i need single sign on and should access both using same login. Anyone done this before, suggest me how to do this.

Thanks in advance, waiting for ur posts.

I've done this before, but it was a few years ago. Extend the joomla registration/user components to also update/insert into the dotproject tables when used.

dotproject uses MD5 with no salt on the password (unlike joomla).

Thanks for reply Jnodwell,

If i extend the joomla registration/user component to update/insert into the dotproject tables i will be having two copies of same login, one in joomla database and one in dotproject database, but what i want is when user login to joomla site he should be able to access dotproject also and when he close the dotproject he should use joomla site in that same login(without logging again).

To do this we have any extentions?

The only way to make that happen is to modify the login for joomla or the login for dotproject so that it also logs the user into the tables for the other when logging in to one. The natural thing is to have joomla log the user into dotproject. If you can find an old copy of the SMF 2 Joomla bridge or a joomla to vbulletin bridge, you will see how it's done to bridge joomla with a forum - and what you want to do will be done the same (similar) way. You will always have two copies of the same login, though, to the user it seems as one because your bridge will create the dotproject login for that user when he/she creates a joomla one.
