forum.twilightonalex.com/Sources/integrations.php created to handle copying member data from the forum. This script is included at the end of the forum Settings.php file. The integration hooks currently only update on user registration, changing profiles or deletion of members. Once testing is done, it will be updated to copy membership data to Joomla on login as well.

Tables updated in Joomla: jos_users, jos_core_acl_aro, and jos_core_acl_groups_aro_map.

Joomla mods created to facilitate auto-login based on Forum login status: Authentication - Simple Auth (files: <joomla>/plugins/authentication/simpleauth.*) System - Bridge: SMF as master (files: <joomla>/plugins/system/bridge_smfasmaster.*)

Joomla Super User accounts will not be touched by the bridge code. If you have a Super User account in Joomla, make sure it's Username is different from the Forum account so that auto-login can create a Joomla entry that it can work with.

Also, auto-login is completely disabled if you are working in the Admin area.
