Need some direction on database
If I want to let Links SQL to use a different user database (eg. of another system), what files should I start editing on?

Thanks

it might be worthwile waiting for the community plugin to be released, then you can use that as a base to make a plugin to work with the system you've got?

just a thought.

I wouldn't suggest trying to modify the structure of the script. You could let Links SQL use another database (i.e a database, with Links_ prefixes)...but changing the whole system would require a LOT of work, and at the end of it probably not be worth it! Wink

Isn't Authenticate.inc.php all I need to edit if I just want Links SQL to use other user database?
