Your Rating: Results: PatheticBadOKGoodOutstanding! 12 rates

By following these instructions you will be able to authenticate blojsom users against the magnolia repository.

Instructions:

1 - Make JCR classes accessible to Blojsom.
Copy jcr.jar and proposal.jar to the blojsom classpath (/WEB-INF/lib) or move these jars from magnolia /WEB-INF/lib to tomcat /commons/lib folder.

2 Copy Magnolia Authorization Provider (magnolia-authorization.jar) to blojsom classpath (/WEB-INF/lib)

3 Copy configuration file (magnolia.properties) to /WEB-INF/

4 Configure the security provider in Blojsom. (/WEB-INF/blojsom.properties)

It should be ready.

Behavior

1 Magnolia superuser (or any other role in the configuration file) is always logged in as administrator.

2 Authorized users (authorization.properties under the blog folder) must be defined in the authorization.properties file (do it with the console). But it doesnÔøΩt matter the password you select in the console. From now on, in order to login, the password is validated with magnolia users repository.

How do you use this in your site? Do you use magnolia to edit blog entries? Or do you use it to populate items around the blog entry space? Do you use the jsp or the vm blojsom templates? --Angus

It's just an authentication integration. With this you can authenticate blojsom users in magnolia. Blojsom and magnolia will work as always.
If you want to syndicate contents from blojsom or any RSS feed use RSS template.
