Hello!

Authentification is an important part of almost any application.
Shall we integrate it into qcubed?

A small example application in the /example folder would help a lot of people save time.

We already ship with a database layout with users and such.
It would not be very hard to add authentification to it.

(I understand that developers have their own ideas how that should look like and that we could argue if this is something that can be generalized. Yet I think a simple example would help anyone and can be adapted easily.
Many developers would be happy to have a secure authentification system ready within their framework.)

Thanks.

Regards,
tronics

I just want to say first that this is a great idea - I have had to write a few security classes for QCodo in my time. I never came up with an end all solution.

But, authentification isn't a real word. Authentication is the word you are looking for.

;) No problem, I just kept thinking of George Bush every time I saw that. Actually, it is a common misspelling apparently. http://dag.wieers.com/blog/authentification-does-not-exist

I get the following error when I try to install the newest version (1.1) of this plugin:

simplexml_load_file() [function.simplexml-load-file]: /var/www/includes/tmp/plugin.tmp/1e414a/plugin.xml:6: parser error : xmlParseEntityRef: no name

EDIT:
Scratch this, I realized that the project I was installing to had not been fully updated to the latest QCubed 1.1 bits.
