Hi,
I am trying to create an authentication method that the user doesn't have to type the password, so i can log in moodle from an external site.
I've tried to create a simple authentication method, like making the function user_login() always return true, but it isn't working.
Can someone help me? What am i doing wrong? Is there some kind of alternative to what I am trying to do?
Thanks
Hi Amy,
Have you seen the list of Authentication methods? Does none of them suit your case?

Hi Glenys,
I went through the Authentication methods and I found that external database would likely work for us - except we have encrypted passwords and the developer finds it a bad idea to decrypt them in order to pass to another database. We store sensitive information in our student database but would not in the Moodle. I thought there might be a way to use External database without the password since we have unique user login names, but I didn't see anything in docs or forums other than this post. Your thoughts are appreciated!
Amy
