User ManagementLoginAuth Framework

External Since: Feb 05, 2008 Posts: 1

I'm hoping to begin working on a text-based game playable in a
browser, using php with a mysql database. One part of the project I
would like to outsource is the handling of user accounts, which
includes login, creation, and authentication. I'm curious as to
whether or not anyone knows any open-source frameworks that do a great
job handling this task.

I'm a little biased Smile

It's not open source, but it's pretty close. (the free version needs links
posted on its login forms)

You're wise to out-source the user management stuff, even if you don't use my
package. If you do it yourself, try and use objects in a manner that enables it
to link in with other systems.

The problem of having multiple logins is why geniegate was made, but.. the
problem of connecting it to other packages (often heavily connected to their
own user stuff) remains a huge problem for people.
