I am using Umbraco 7.6.5, along with Merchello shopping plugin and the Dialogue forum plugin, is there a way to make a login and register area for both these plugins so the users doesn't have to login/register multiple times for each plugin.
Adding in DialogueMember (or whatever the alias you wish to use is) into here should start classing them both as customers.
Ideally you'd have one common member type to share across both, so you'd manually add in any necessary property types (though I think in this case they only exist within Dialogue). You'd need to ensure all the correct fields are initialised on registration (again, this should only be needed for Dialogue custom fields like post count).
This is all theoretical and may break down at some point within the process, but from what I can remember from working with Dialogue, this should be fine
Merchello and Dialogue login functions
Hello there,
I am using Umbraco 7.6.5, along with Merchello shopping plugin and the Dialogue forum plugin, is there a way to make a login and register area for both these plugins so the users doesn't have to login/register multiple times for each plugin.
Many thanks in advance,
James Shute
You can add any custom member types into Merchello.config on the following line
