What is SSO with auto-login ?

what is its use?

When I enable it from plugin then cannot find server page come on login option

SSO stands for single sign on.
If you already have a site with its login system, you can integrate it with codoforum using SSO.
once SSO is activated, codoforum will use your main website's login/registration/logout.

this is very useful for people who already have a site built on Joomla or Wordpress or any other CMS.

Does this works with sites with different TLD Domains, but hosted in the same server and with the same IP?

Yes It will work.
for example our website runs on drupal.
but you need some authentication mechanism on you website.

1. codoforum will request your site and your site should return the current logged in user details.
2. codoforum will then use these details to initiate a session.

let me know if you need help regarding this.

No for the moment I don't use it, but I plan something like this.
First, I plan to have a few forums running on Codoforum, but each of them will have different TLDs. Ideal would be if these forums share the same userbase.
Than, I have a gallery site running with Coppermine Photo Gallery. This one too I need to have connected with the Forum. For CPG are some bridges out there. So if Codoforum could work with it for the user and comment system, this would be awesome. BTF, you should consider Codoforum and as Comment system for diffrent purposes. E.g, CMS with need for comment system, Blogs like those with Wordpress, Galleries like Coppermine and so on. Discourse has something like this.

Just an Idea for the future. ;)

PS: For the moment I'm still using SMF (Forum with more than 1 million posts and topics), but in a few months, Codoforum will be my software of choice.

Ideal would be if these forums share the same userbase.

It is possible and easy to implement with help of codoforum sso .

Yes, it is an good idea . We will see if we can do that .

Hi guys, can someone give an example of how to populate the SSO fields? I really don't understand the sample URLs that come with the installation and there is no help or documents about it. What exactly are these and what shall I use?

I should also mention that I already have a website with a registration and sign in system in place. I just want to use the sessions so that when members on my website are signed in, they will also be signed in to my codoforum installation. How do I do that?

SSO Name:
SSO Client ID:
SSO Secret:
SSO Get User Path:
SSO Login User Path:
SSO Logout User Path:
SSO Register User Path:

Thank you,
Mark

We have not yet added documentation on this since the sso plugin is undergoing a major rewrite.

We will be releasing a new version on 12th of this month and documentation for SSO integration will be added by that time.

Hope you can wait till then.

Thank you. I love how the software progresses.

We have added documentation on SSO integraion here:

Very interesting, but is it also possible to do it the other way around? For example let a comment system use Codoforum's login system?

In other words: Is it possible to login with your Codoforum account at another (part of the) website?

Yes, it is possible.
You can create a plugin in Codoforum for that.
The plugin will send an AJAX response with the current user details.

Ahh I'll just go and build a plugin then..... Not really xD

I might do actually.... Could you walk me through the logic then?

I will probably have to build some sort of API plugin that allows remote requests.
But how would this integrate with the uni_login plugin? Because Steam is my only login possibility .

Because Steam is my only login possibility

Can you please explain what you are trying to do ?

I have visited your website http://hkon.tv/codoforum/ and know that you have integrated Steam login system into Codoforum.
But, where will you use the Codoforum login system ?

I was trying to implement it in the comment system as seen here: http://hkon.tv/news/g2a

Since there was no comment system available that suited my needs I just build my own. What I did now is just integrated the sign in through steam API separately from the forums which works quite well I guess.

So, you want your users to be able to login using Codoforum too ?

If yes that is possible, may be we should write some documentation for it.
