Cakephp with OpenID and User Authentication
- by nolandark
I have a table "users" and I want to enable my visitors to login with their openID Account. For this I use the OpenId Component for Cakephp and it works fine (When I login with the Google URL I receive the "successfully authenticated!" notification).
But now I'm kind of stuck because I don't know how to go on from there.
Do I have to create a User-Entry for every user which has a new entry in the "oid_associations" table (I save all OpenId interaction in the mysql database)?
Do I have to authenticate the User after the login (or is the OpenID-component doing that automatically?).
Am I completely misunderstanding the concept?
