Php Edit In Joomla / Oauth

Php Edit In Joomla / Oauth
Right now, joomla uses a registration system that asks a user their information. We want to use OAuth to create the account for Joomla.

They click a button that says “Login using Twitter”. This will take them to twitter asking them if they will allow the application, they click yes and are brought back to the site. THIS IS ALL ALREADY DONE…

What you need to do, is take the information that OAuth sends back from twitter, and create an account in our Joomla site with it. To do so, when they get back to the site, a small popup will ask their name and email (Joomla Requires this) and that information (and the Oauth info) will then be used to create their account.

Now, when they come back and “login with twitter” It will just take them to their joomla account on our site, because the system will know it is already verified with Oauth / Twitter. This all uses the Jomsocial extension. This is the registration form you will be working with.

This should be somewhat simple to adjust in PHP and add the appropriate categories in MySQL.

MUST HAVE MSN, or YAHOO, or GTALK messengers
