I am wondering what is required from 3rd party scripts in order to actually develop a plugin that will integrate with their system? Is there any degree of complexity or simplicity that other scripts have to have in place in order for you to develop a plugin for them? Do they even have to have some sort of a user system to begin with in order to write a plugin? I am just asking because I am in talks with developers of an article management system to try and get them to create an end-user system for their script (to allow users to register, allow admins to sort them into usergroups and assign certain permissions to them based on those groups)... and I was wondering what would you (Alex) need in order to start developing some sort of integration with their system? Does their user system need to be really simple (since all the features of a user system that I need are already in aMember)?
It is only required that third-party script has existing user system that stores users record in MySQL. Then it is easy to write a plugin for aMember that will manage MySQL table of application to add/remove/update users.
