You'd need a single signon method, not a totally trivial thing to
build from scratch if you want to integrate with the Wordpress blog.
Why not look at Ray Camden's BlogCFC?

exposing the country to danger. It works the same in every country."

I have a cf site that has an SQL Sever 2000 database. It holds its
user accounts in this database which controls logins. I need to
integrate a blog with the site but we don't want users to have to
login to the cf application and to the blog. I need to integrate an
existing blog application so that it would could share the user
data. My thoughts are:
1. Use the free Word Press blog that comes with the hosting account
at HostMySite.com. My understanding is that Word Press uses a MySQL
database so I could write some cf code to insert user records into
its database and then auto login folks to the blog by posting to
its login script? Has anyone tried to do something like this? I
only consider it because it comes free with the hosting account.
2. Find a blog application that uses CF and SQL 2000 and somehow
integrate it with the existing cf application. This seems like the
best approach but I haven't started looking for suitable blog
application yet. If anyone has done this and could recommend a
suitable one, much appreciated.
Also I should mention that the blog will be used mainly for posting
company newsletters and articles. We would also like to do the same
thing with a discussion forum but again need it to work with the
existing login system.
Thanks,
Dusty
