Forum login name change

<< < (3/3)

Working for me too, with just one remark: I had to change password because my old one is considered not safe enough by the forum software. I could use it but I cannot set it as a new password.

Not necessarily a bad thing, but good to know about...

Funnily enough Andrei, I got the same thing :P

I'm going to have a first look at the forum authentication API this weekend (if I can) and if at all possible, I'll be forcing the forum to reuse my old (insecure) password. I'll let you all know if it allows me to make such a change.

EHM-1829 Trevor:

  No problems as yet, so far so good :)

EHM-0654 Murray:
Just a quick note for those of you not part of the MT. My plan is to test-drive the single sign-on on a bit of the site that you non-MT folks don't know about - it's a much used part of the site for the MT though.

While making it understand an auth pass-through from the forum will be nice for us in the MT, my actual thinking here is that said bit of the site uses it's own authentication mechanisms any way (a separate bit of the database, it's own username/password handling code) and I can play with it without overly hurting anything that would affect everyone. So, don't expect things to change very much for a wee while yet...
