Re: [LiveUser] adding user to permission container only

I've got a question concerning the feature of LiveUser that it should be possible to use existing tables for authentication. I'm using a table with many users in which username - password combinations are stored. Mapping LiveUser to the right entries was no problem - authentication is working fine.

great :-)

But I don't know how I can add user rights to this users. How can i add a user to the permissions container that is already stored in the authentication container? If I try the ::addUser method, LieveUser tries to add the user to both containers and gives an error message.

You would need to use the addUser() method in the perm container. $data = array( 'auth_user_id' => $auth_user_id, // the unique user id in the given auth container 'auth_container_name' => $auth_container_name, // this is the key in the authContainers configuration array for the container that stores the given user 'type' => LIVEUSER_USER_TYPE_ID // optional or some other type id ); $perm_user_id = $LUA->perm->addUser(); regards, Lukas
