Custom forum registration through MCCodes Register?


Recommended Posts

Posted

I was curious if anyone knew how to make it so that if you register with an MCCodes game you also automatically register for forums (SMF/VBulletin/ETC)?

I've been trying to think of how to do this and I'm just completely brain dead.

I was going to setup SMF or PHPBB3 forums for my game but I want the username to automatically register when they register for my game. Anyone have any ideas?

Not sure how it would work exactly with an external site system so I'll hold that part off til ppl are around to answer how to do that.

Both sites are on the same server but different login information etc.

Thanks for the info though I can use that temporarily just to test my system

Well unsure about the code, but the way i would go about this is inserting a bit of code in the register.php so that once they register for the game they are automatically registred for the forum on another domain, so you'll have to provide the website link in the code. This would make it a 2 in 1 register, so basically this is how i would do it.

It's possible because I joined a game and it said "Thanks for registering, You have also signed up to the forums. You should check them out"

So yeah, I know it's possible.

Thanks, I've been searching around and no luck so far...

I like that above post for INTERNAL forums. I'm going to turn the register in my forums into a link to my game registry

Thanks Dayo, I did actually notice that. I learned to follow the thread down to check for updates and such.

Now I need to find out how to do it with PHP BB3 instead of SMF
