How would I Change registration.

[SupremeWeapon]

So that when someones registers. notonly do they register for the forum, But there username/password/email all get sent to a Second DATABASE/Table for another login thing.

Basically lets say the vB installation h as it in a database called bob.

Now lets say I have another thing installed in a database called Bobc3p0

Now not only do I want them to register on the forums which means their info gets saved in the bob database. But I would also like it sent to the bobc3p0 database for another thing so they don;t have to register twice.

I need to understand how to make itr do different tables as well. the second one would be a table called "login"

Understand what I mean?

If not please post to what you donot understand about and I will try toclarify.

This can be done in 1 register submit form and a shared cookie.

You could have problems with account info sync if there are many fields that change.

I would think you might need a full bridge: password, email, profile fields, delete account sync between the 2 programs.

theres a function in the newer IPBs ( I know thios isnt ipb but hear me out ) to read from an external database and write to it and what not.

Can vB be modified to do this aswell?

I have the same issue on my site, what I did is made an html form that submitted all the variables I needed into table 1, then upon execution re-direct to a plain barebones html version of register.htm with username, password and email as hidden fields in that form from a cookie, and just left the rules and timezone options visible then when the user submitted that, it was seamless and the info matched. - That only solved half my problem though, now I need to make a registration for my other (portal) to automatically add the username, email and password variables to the vbulletin table without forwarding them to the forum.
