PolakTom101 Posted April 19, 2007 Posted April 19, 2007 Is Converge gone from this board because the login form takes me to the regular log in form and the IPS Client Area doesn't work with the login?
.Ryan Posted April 19, 2007 Posted April 19, 2007 Is Converge gone from this board because the login form takes me to the regular log in form and the IPS Client Area doesn't work with the login?Same thing here, I was wondering if Converge was disabled and being worked on, or if you just removed the forums application and added Nexus and left it at that.
Keith J. Kacin Posted April 19, 2007 Posted April 19, 2007 IPB 2.3 has complete IP.Converge integration.That means for:Logging InRegisteringChanging EmailChanging PassEtc. etc. etc.It is all done through the board, making calls to IP.Converge in the backend. If your board is converged, you will never have to be redirected to the Converge script.
Management Charles Posted April 19, 2007 Management Posted April 19, 2007 As Keith mentioned, we are indeed using Converge here but the 2.3 update allows for better integration so you never have to see Converge working in the background.
Working4computers Posted April 19, 2007 Posted April 19, 2007 If I'm logged into the board, when I visit : http://login.ipslink.com; am I ment to be logged in there as well?

bfarber Posted April 19, 2007 Posted April 19, 2007 No. :)It does log you in via the converge system, however the converge application has no way of knowing when you visit who you are or that you are logged in. Sessions are handled by the application individually - Converge is just the centralized place to ensure the login credentials are correct.
Guest Posted April 19, 2007 Posted April 19, 2007 So if I want to use a central login form for everything, can I still do that with 2.3? It seems more logical to use one form, rather than multiple separate ones...
princetontiger Posted April 19, 2007 Posted April 19, 2007 I noticed now my client area password is the password for here officially
