vb.org Archive - View Single Post - Embedding vBulletin into an ASP-based site.

Hi there.

I have been brought onto the development team for a website that we are building in ASP VBScript. My preference is of course PHP but this is not to everyone's taste so ASP is the way things are going. We have been running VBulletin (on a seperate linux server) for some time now, and are very pleased with it.

The main ASP site will have support for members to log in and modify certain sections we allow them to (a la vBulletin user groups), and I am looking for a solution, so that users can use the same login name / password for the main site, and the forum, and when logged into one or the other, they are logged into both.

I suspect we can make the ASP login scripts act as a "wrapper" for the vbulletin login sequence, and then it would just be a case of utilising the cookies generated by the forum in the ASP scripts.

Does anyone have any experience with this, or any pointers as to how we might move forwards?

I appreciate this isnt really a vbulletin question as such, but any input would be greatly appreciated.
