custom login
 

Hello!
I'm run a site on Joomla! and vBulletin 3.7.0.
I'm writing a custom login-function to log the user into both Joomla! and vBulletin at the same time.

My question is, what happens when a user submits it's username and password?

I guess it matches the username, md5 and salt.
What kind of sessions is created, with what values?
What is written to the db?
I guess that lastvisit and stuff like that is done... but are there any more that I need to know about?

You can take the hack apart and see how it works.

Thanks!

If you look at login.php, the login is checked by the function verify_authentication and if returns true, the session is created with the function process_new_login.
