The syncing is from DAP->WP. Its not from WP -> DAP.

If the user that you add to dap, is already in wp with the same username/email (as in dap), then dap will re-sync to WP when the user logs in to dap.

I know DAP syncs with wordpress, but does wordpress sync with DAP?

In other words, if I add a user into DAP that is already in WP will it sync to that user in WP? How would I go about achieving this?

Thanks =)

It’s unfortunately an annoying WP feature. There are a few different ways to get rid of it.

The problem I have when using the dap –> wordpress feature is that wp users automatically see the wordpress toolbar at the top of the screen when they login. From this wp toolbar, they can access their wp profile and change their wp password there.
However as dap is the master and wp the slave, this password change will not be effective. It’s going to be difficult to explain to my users that they have a profile here but they can’t change the password because they have to do it on another profile (the dap one).

Any idea on how to solve this ?

Yes, if dap -> wp sync is enabled, then dap will figure out how to sync dynamically i.e. when to create a new account and when to update existing account.

If the user is created by dap, then the ID will be the same in wordpress no matter what changes are done to the user in DAP and/or in wordpress? (knowing that wordpress user get rewritten everytime it syncs with DAP)

thanks.

Dan,

You can redirect to http://Yoursite.com/dap/authenticate.php

Example below:

header(“Location: /dap/authenticate.php?email=” . $post['email'] . “&password=” . $post['password'] . “&submitted=Y”);

Hi Ravi,

I like the integration, BUT – is there an API callback function in DAP that I can execute when a login in WP is made? I have my own custom login form that I want to use, and I’d like to call “DAP” to setup the cookie/verify the user and so on.

Please let me know,
Dan L
