Can I disable forum registration & login?

Hi, thinking of buying your forum software to integrate into my existing asp.net website. I use asp:membership with sql server and would want to use single sign on (which seems straightforward having read your instructions).
 
However, I would only want users to be able to register and login via the asp:membership system on the existing site, i.e. is it possible to disable any registration and login links on the forum? I would ideally redirect the user to the existing asp:membership login page if they try to use a forum feature that requiresthem to login.
 
Thanks,
 
Justin 

Hi Justin,

Yes, you can disable login/registration for the forum:

1. registration can be turned off via the admin control panel
2. you can set the loginurl for the forms authentication to point to your own login page
3. the login form in the software is a user control, and you can in the code behind file do a simple response.redirect to your own login page.

hello, i have a classified site with register and login using php/mysql and i want to integrate a forum.
I don't want users from my site to register and login twice ...
Does somebody know how to do that?

take a look:

but I don't know if php can work with the membership provider pattern at all.
