s2members integration with 3rd party applicat

Hi,

I’m evaluating s2members for a new application website and everything (almost) seems to be great. That being said, I’m still looking for an answer to one special need.

I will have another application (written in PHP) that will have its own user management and ocne a user registers for certain service, I need to create the same user details on the remote application, using the same password.

I’ve tried hooking (using the s2-hacks.php) to different actions but couldnot have found a way to do so. is it really impossible ?

Thanks

Gil.

Thanks for your inquiry. ~ We appreciate your patience :-)

API Notifications would be key here! Yes, please see this section of your Dashboard.

Hi,

I have looked into the API feature but think I need something much simpler. I have an external app that just needs to query the s2member data. It will check usertype and some custom fields I create in s2member. Is this stuff stored in one of the tables under USER_ID? or is it otherwise accessible?

Thank you.

Sorry, forget that request. I find now how I can parse the field and get the data I need.

Thanks and thanks for a great product!

Awesome. Thanks for following-up. I appreciate that!

eventually I’ve looked into the code and found the during user configuration hook, which was very usefull.

However, because the other app is remote, I decided to do the integration before creating teh user locally and could not have found any action.therefor I decided to hook on the validate_username action.
