Re: does intertiki work?

> is intertiki stable and secure?

It works but may not be bug free. It's used to transfer user info between this site and several "slave" sites, but there have been glitches, especially involving edu.tw.o. I'm not sure what the current status is on that.

The databases aren't connected directly. The relationship is set up by inputting the master-site info on the slave site, and then user logins get sent to the master site for authentication, or something like that. I just described how the themes.tw.o site Intertiki config is set up in another forum post within the last week or so. Maybe you can find it or if I do I'll edit this post with the URL.

> and when it is working, what is possible/impossible to do with it?

If you are registered at the master site, you don't need to register at the slave site; you can just log in. User preferences and group information is transferred. As far as I know, that's the limit of what it does. Things like user activity figures are independent on each site.

> are users that register at one tiki also registered in the other?

Yes

> both ways?

Only one way: people should register only at the master site. On-line registration at the slave site should be turned off.

Maybe only the Tiki support sites are using Intertiki so far. Anyway, as with many new features, the documentation trails behind.
