Hi,

I have a Joomla site, and want to link from the Joomla site to my Docebo courses.
Is it possible to have Joomla and Docebo use the same userbase authentication?
If a user logged in to Joomla, click a link for a course in Docebo, he gets automatically logged in to the Docebo course (if he is logged in to Joomla with authentication set to Special). Joomla have three authentication levels of users, guests, registered and special.

What would be the cost to develop this functionality?

I have tested several LMS, and find Docebo the best solution because of the ease of use, and nice report feedback it gives users (on front page users can see have many modules are passed, progress, etc.), and it works with one of mine preferred SCORM authoring tools Articulate (but not with Camtasia...).

Making an integration with Joomla (and Drupal) I think Docebo would see a very high increase in popularity. This is probably the best marketing you could do for your nice LMS solution in 2009!

Have a nice day!

Best regards,
Torgrim Sandvoll

Yes I would be interested in being able to use Docebo db in Joomla and I found the following plugin which should do the trick : http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/access-&-security/authentication-external/3444/details

Next stage will be when someone develops a module to allow user to access Docebo FROM Joomla!

Here's another joomla plugin which could be useful for bridging the two applications:

Not tryied it yet, but sounds good.

I have had some kind of success with trying to create a plugin for JFusion.  So far the plugin is reading the config file and is recognising the number of users.  My main problem is getting the users to synchronise properly.
