Logging in from another page

I'm building a site where Dolphin is in a sub-directory.

the parent site has its own Registration Form totally customised to suit our data requirements...

what i'd like to do is

• when that form is submitted, the Member Names, emailid and password (and a few other data) to simulateneously be populated in the Dophin DB also
• when the member Logs in at the parent site, he should also be logged in here... i mean... how or what cookies do i generate  ?
• I'm using a simple md5 encryption of the password in the parent site.... I know that Dolphin uses a salt function to encrypt so how do I do that ?

any help in the right direction or a pointer to an existing help topic would be appreciated

... cheers

I think the join part can be done something like this

• User Submits the form.
• The form data is send to a file with a function that is specially coded to add profile to dolphin system.

The code should be fully compatible one. It should create alerts also. Take a look at this function BxDolJoinProcessor.php->registerMember() function and take alerts part from there and come to BxDolProfileController.php->createProfile() function.

You can remove the couple and photo upload stuff as thats not needed here i think. Pass the user data to its duplicate function that you will create. Edit it to fit your needs.

Well after saying this i will say its not too easy but trying will not harm. :)

Good luck

Thanks Prashank...

I guess the data population part is going to be comparitively easier compared to synchronising the cookies for seamless login...

anyways, lemme do the changes and update the results here
