So your answer is yes to no. 2. Get BlogCFC from here 
http://www.coldfusionjedi.com/projects/projects.cfm and upload it to your 
site. I also use BlogCFC, but haven't yet modified it. Find the security 
mechanism in BlogCFC and replace it with yours. I'm thinking its all 
pretty much by session scope stuff and a per request/page security check 
or something. Wish I could help more but don't have time to really look 
into it. I'm thinking you'd pretty much change BlogCFC session or security 
parameter or whatever to match your own. I have dealt with multi 
application security before using a simple session solution that worked 
out great. Good luck and I hope it works out, maybe you can post a blog 
about your experience.

Subject
[ACFUG Discuss] integrate blog with cf site






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
