I'm working on emedding SMF users into current website, and I need to make mechanism that will automatically register people afer their registration on website. Can anyway suggest me how I can do this, as far as I uderstand that's not possible to do with SSI?
thanks in advance,
Michael
What version of SMF are you using? What website are you trying to integrate with?
A commonly requested scenario is tying Wordpress to SMF. There have been several bridges built in the past, but they've been withdrawn due to license compatibility issues. However, if that's what you're looking for and you're running SMF 2 and WP 3+, take a look at this brand new mod, which will do what you're asking: Wordpress 3.0+ User Integration.
Good luck! (And you'll probably get better help on the SMF support forums, which are very active, with a very helpful support team.)
I you are using SMF2.0, the user andre nickatina created an API and an INTEGRATION HOOK intending to integrate/synchronise SMF with your website users.
The API will let you control SMF from your other system.
The INTEGRATION HOOK will let you control your other system from SMF
All info and support can be found on the following link

BTW really good support provided by andre nickatina, i use it on my website and works really well, if you want i can pass you my website URL so you can see it in action.
Good Luck!

I have managed to create a Checkout Button for my Wordpress Site (using Divi) to accepts my customer's payment details and directly passes them to Stripe's servers.
Now, I need to create charges using Stripe’s API and my server-side code to process charges.
I am quite lost here having never done this before. Could someone tell me by step by step how to proceed?
Welcome to stackoverflow!
Maybe you could consider using a plugin for wordpress like: https://nb.wordpress.org/plugins/stripe/
You dont seem that familiar with PHP so i highly recomend using a plugin instead.
EDIT:
If you prefer to make this yourself take a look at stripe docs here: https://stripe.com/docs/quickstart and maybe consider looking at this tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EildM6OMcoQ (This guy is awesome)
i have a project with a friend and its about developing a website which will provide the users with some courses on certain topics.
And we were wondering on how we are going to be updating the lessons notes and posting new ones without any problem. And he said the cpanel provided by the host company will provided a means to post just like on blogs. So i doubted and i'll like to ask if it true or i'll have to code a new page for every topic on the site.
Please i'll appreciate if any one helps me with the truth or a guide on how to do it.
thanks...
A good starting point for you is to use github to host a code repository you start with git. If you use github, you can utilize github pages to host your content for free.
If you already have a hosting framework in mind like WAMP or heroku, let us know and we can provide more specific information on how to push your code up to your application depending on how you're hosting it. But the best starting point for you is to use some sort of version control and the leading version control option is git. You definitely never need to rewrite the same code all over again and version control is essential for managing updates to your code and collaborating with other developers.
Has anyone has done Eventbrite integration with an Expression Engine site? We'd like to set up events with Eventbrite and have them handle all ticket management. But we'd like to be able to display the events within the Expression Engine site and then enable users to click on the link to be redirected to Eventbrite. I've viewed the API and it looks like we can create custom EE pages with the API.
More importantly I'd like to let users search for events from our main site.
Has anyone done this type of work and have any hints or resources?
Thanks.
Todd Perkins got started on a module for this some time ago, but there hasn't been any action on it since then. Could be a good starting point for you though.

Eventbrite has a great PHP-based API client library that should be able cover all of your API interaction needs.
These PHP examples might be useful as well:
https://github.com/ryanjarvinen/eventbrite.php/tree/master/examples
http://eventbrite.github.com/#examples
Please let #EventbriteAPI know if you make any major progress on this project. I'm sure they would love to add an Expression Engine integration to their open source projects list and application showcase!
If I build a site using Wordpress, is there a straightforward way to restrict access to the whole site to only those who I specify?
I've looked a few plugins that attempt to redirect unregistered users to the login page, but most seem old, fragile, or generally just hacks.
I want to know if a standard Wordpress installation lets you do this, or otherwise if there's a decent and secure plugin to do it. I need a solution that doesn't involve changing the default wordpress PHP scripts as I don't have direct access to the server. It's quite important that the solution is secure.
Any help or past experience would be appreciated.
EDIT: Apologies if this is better suited to http://wordpress.stackexchange.com, wasn't aware this existed. Please move if necessary :-)
The new version of WP, I believe v 3.1.2, has this option for pages and posts under the quick edit.
You can set a password per post / page or mark them as private.
What is a (free) technology which requires the least amount of code for creating a website with the following requirements:
Sign-up/login
Form for adding your personal info. which gets databased
Each person can view and edit their own info
Admin can view and edit any
The form needs to be easily customizable and extensible (by the website's owner, not during run-time)
Is there a beginner tutorial for such a thing?
(For me, this question is about a friend who wants me to do this, but I want him to do it himself so I don't have to get roped into maintenance. I also want to keep it more general for the sake of Stack Overflow and future readers.)
Edit: I thought I remembered some ASP.NET tutorials that were mostly drag/drop or things where it was all but made for you from the database schema (which can be made with SSMS's GUI) but I can't seem to find them now.
Responding to posts below requesting specifics: this site will be for potential clients to sign-up and enter their company's info and fill out a form about their advertising needs.
I thought about putting this on SU instead, but since there was likely going to be some coding involved (I assumed no-code was an unreachable goal) SO seemed more appropriate.
Your friend can consider a framework like drupal. It has a bit of a learning code but, you can create a website with everything you ask for without code. You may want to modify it to change the look but there are themes for that.
Also, some hosts like godaddy.com have this installed and you do not have to worry about the complex installation procedures. Just start modifying the content of the site, select a built in template and go...
PhpBB? I think you need to specify what the website is going to be used for before you can get better/more specific answers.
... have a look at Drupal or Joomla, expect a learning curve nevertheless.
Is this friend a programmer as well? If so, I'd suggest building such a site using a PHP framework. Deploying an existing forum/wiki is also an option of course, but will probably have much more features than you describe. But if s/he's not a programmer, I don't see how s/he will be able to develop a site like that in a reasonable amount of time.
Why not using a CMS like wordpress, drupal and co. ?
