Talk:ExternalAuth 2009 ideas
External users
editI install MediaWiki 1.18.1 and phpBB 3.0.10
I know about Extension:PHPBB/Users_Integration and it does not suit me.
I need the following functionality:
- when user input login and password script first checks its presence in the database wiki
- if user not present in wiki userbase, script must access to phpBB3 user table (with ban-check), and if user present in phpBB3-usertable user login into wiki
- phpBB3-user must have full wiki-capabilities and script must map phpBB3 usergroups into the wiki-groups
I know about ExternalAuth, but I do not know what to do next
P.S. Sorry my bad english
method getGroups()
edit- how I can set permissions to phpBB3 groups?
or
- how I can map phpBB3 groups to mediawiki groups?
