This is a general question on how to approach a issue I am having with integrating this forum with another website.

I have a website, which is not a sharepoint site or portal in anyway and I want to integrate this forum into the site and have a single sign on.

After going through the code in yetanotherforum i saw that there is a function called IsCustom in Config.cs.

static public bool IsCustom
		{
			get
			{
				return ( configSection ["CustomUserClass"] != null && configSection["CustomUserAssembly"] != null );
			}
		}

Im not sure the purpose of this function, but it seems to use the config file to find the name of a class / assembly so that later it can use reflection to create a instance of this class. Is the purpose of this to use a custom users class to integrating with other sites? If not, what is the best way to approach integration without tearing apart yetanotherforum and keeping its database separate?

I do not wish to do this in a half fast way, I would rather do it the right way even if it envolves coding alot.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you,

Brandon Rohrer
