How can i share User database for multiple instances of osqa1, osqa2 sites ? For example a user of osqa1 do not need to subscribe to osqa2, he just uses his login from osqa1 to connect osqa2. Thank you. |

This is something that comes naturally with Qato, our commercial hosted product. You can have multiple sites in a "network" that share a user base and a top-level reputation and badges. The content on each site is different (although it could be shared within the same network if we wanted). With this solution, you could continue using all the normal auth modes across both sites and login to either one with any of them. Separately, each site in Qato comes with a "meta space" where you can break out the questions about the site itself. We're working on exposing that into the various skins this week, but the core stuff is already there. If you're interested in Qato, please get in touch at sales at dzone.com or call us at 919.678.0300 and we'd be happy to give you a demo. Im interested in Qato and I emailed you guys a while ago about pricing and received no reply. I don't see this as a good sign, so I'm considering hiring devs to work onto of OSQA. Can on of you send me an email to the address associated with this account.

Well that's bizarre, I rarely miss an email like that :) What email did you send it to the last time? I will send you a separate email to make sure you get that one!

It is not a good idea to share the users table and make it accessible from two different installations. Consider creating an OpenID Interface that is going to be shared. As a good example you can use facebookauth, oauthauth and openidauth modules. 1
But how to link the two sites when someone subscribes by username and password ??? I would to keep this possibility

Yeah, I'm curious about this for a normal and a meta site.
