Yes, as I told you above. This is not going to work, without some programming, unless somebody already created a fully working module for your case.

The whole external authentication module should not be needed with your version of the script hook_user_session_restore.php. If you store that message as mod_whateveryoulike.php inside the mods folder directly, then it should work too. The file implements a single file module, by including the hook and module information in the file header.

Most of the features of the external authentication module are not used here, only the user_session_restore hook is used. When things would be more complicated (e.g. when an extra mapping table would be needed to map between users on both systems), then the External Authentication module would become more interesting for the use case.

Then i have probably totally misunderstood your comments on my problem.
but for now, it works correctly, wihout any (performance) problems.
(already almost 2000 messages, and messages seen many many thousants times right now, with usually about 60-100 visitors simultaniously on the whole site)

So i hardly dare to change it now:)
we are really very satisfied about Phorum!

Yeah, it will work for sure, since in both setups, Phorum will trigger the PHP function coming from the user_session_restore hook. It doesn't really matter how you get there, as long as you get there. If you're happy with the setup as-is, then there is no need to change things.

I am trying to get this work. But i guess I am missing somethings.
Maybe It is a lot to ask but if you post a YouTube video of your manual it will be easier for everybody
Thanks;

Kyildiz1, this message of yours looks quite a lot like a spam message. Integration is not something one could create a generic YouTube video about really. If you are serious about an integration project, then explain what your system looks like and what problem(s) you run into.

I have webpage that i want to add a phorum
I want to integrate both with one login.But so far i couldn't manage to get it work.
The problem is i dont know how to connect two sessions so that logged-in users can go to forum without have to log-in again.
I installed external authentication mode.And i did some modifications on mod_inherit_authentication_from_session.php file
but it is not working so far.
I can provide you the link if that helps
BTW:I have average knowledge about php.

A link wouldn't help here. Integration as a back-end thing, which does not show up in the browser.

mod_inherit_authentication_from_session.php could be a good start, but without specific information, it's impossible to help. What exactly did you do and how does the main system session management work?
