You need one login for two or more different sites in joomla

I am tasked to create a website using joomla. This will be the "sister" of the site for the existing joomla site. Both are in the same area.

However, owners want users to be able to sign in to one and still sign in to the other.

How can I do that? If possible

Thanks in advance!:)

Use OpenID instead of local authentication.

Of course available -

  • Cookies must be subdomain independent
  • You should synchronize the user and session tables between subdomains.


To complete task-1, refer to http://www.idealog.us/2006/09/php_session_coo.html . For task-2, you can write a plugin that synchronizes the user and session table across subdomains.

One way to do this is to create two separate sites in one Joomla instance ...

First follow the instructions http://docs.joomla.org/Multiple_Domains_and_Web_Sites_in_a_single_Joomla!_installation which explains how to create these two sites.

When creating site templates, use different module positions for each site. For example, if your menu is usually published at the module position "left", you can create a second template at the module position "left2" and then create separate menus for each site and simply publish them at the corresponding position in the site site.

Hope this helps!

I am using JMS2Win.

You can use it to create duplicate sites that have the same database and different tables inside.

It costs about $ 80, but it costs money as it is a well documented component. The guy who built it also supports Edwin.

I have duplicated four sites from one master with different content, with shared custom tables. Really elegant, since it's not a sync system, she shared ...
