    I am newbie with respect to WordPress Websites. I have created an Internal Website for my organization which can be hosted in Xampp Server. Other than WordPress Site, we have been actively maintaining other two Web Applications build on PHP with separate Database for each Apps. The two apps are Inventory Management & Tickets which has separate login to allows only specific users to login.

    After the development of this WordPress Site, we want to integrate the Other WebApplication with WordPress and have only one Username and Password for all the applications. In which we want to remove the Password field alone from the Databases of the Inventory Management & Tickets Web Apps. The registration is for all the employees in WordPress Site. However i want to connect the Inventory Management & Ticket Website that, logged in wordpress user whose username is matched with the Inventory Management Database can access the Web Apps as such.

    I dont want to change the structure of the Web Apps location. I want them to be available as such.

    htdocs
    –>wordpressSite
    –>InventoryManagement
    –>Tickets

    If anyone has doubts on the requirement can reply me, i am expecting a solution here. How to achieve a single login with wordpress site and to use the same for authenticating the External Web Apps

    Thanks 🙂

    Moved to Fixing WordPress as this is not Developing with WordPress topic.

    If anyone has doubts on the requirement can reply me, i am expecting a solution here.

    These are volunteer community support forums, are you posting a job spec…? If you are, please consider posting on a jobs board. That’s not this place.

    There are several single sign of plugins you may consider trying.

    That way instead of trying to create your own (and that’s daunting) you can consider using an external sign on and somehow coordinate that with your other applications possibly.

    Hi Jan,
    The word requirements here merely means the problem statement and doesn’t have anything related to job spec. Thanks

    I believe Jan was specifically referring to “i am expecting a solution here,” which comes off at the start as very confrontational, especially on a forum that is only staffed by volunteers doing all of this on their free time.

    If you are dead-set on expectations that someone will custom-build an integration for you, as Jan mentioned, you might as well hire someone or use an existing plugin.

    No, am not putting out a deadline to anyone and never said that in my topic question, again am rephrasing my words on “expecting a solutions” to “help me or any suggestions”.
    As Jan said, am looking upon the ideas on SSO. Thanks to him.
    I very well know people here are volunteering & helping others. I also know how everyone is contributing to help this forum grow. Without knowing this, newbie like me not going to approach WordPress for their use. Even none replies to my “problem statement”, am not gonna take it to my heart or shun away from WordPress. Intention is to sought help & opinions and nothing more. If anyone expect me to rephrase my topic to any further extent am open to it. Thanks
