Hi Matthias, Thank you for your reply. I actually have the authentication working as well. However I am now struggling to set and get values in the session once the authentication is successful. Basically, once the credentials are checked and correct, I want to add 2 variables in the session so that all the elements in the subsite that inherits from AUTH can have access to them.
I thought this should be done with global variables but I don't know how to set and get them. I have tried to extend the RoleUserAuthenticated class and do a setOutput() inside the acceptedCredentials() hook. I ran into an exception saying "beanClass cannot be null" thrown by ElementSupport.generateEmptyForm(). Are you trying to do something similar with your inbean and outbean? If so, how does the inbean gets created and populated? I have spent a few hours reading the wiki, the cookbook, the javadoc, the source code, and I am now confused on how to do what I want. Also, how to get access to the credentials object from an element that inherits from AUTH? It seems tht it is possible only if you have the 'login' value...Really, I don't know where to look now. I'd really appreciate any help. Rodrigue On Jun 18, 5:02 pm, Matthias Barmeier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > I have written a CredentialsManager to.
