Arrrgghh This isn't working for me at all.

I get the sign with modx button, but clicking it takes me to my modx login page. Logging in then forwards me to my forum, which states that i'm not logged in.

I've followed the instructions at the link below:

Thanks. Unfortunately that method isn't secure and there is no automatic login. Users have to log in to Modx then click a button again to log in to vanilla.

Where are the most update instructions for setting this up from stratch? The first post is a good few years old now and things have moved on I imagine.

Success, you need FURL enabled.

When the jsconnect is trying to request the SSO modx page it's adding in an additional question mark to the url so you get:
"mydomain.com/index.php?id=2?client_id=111111111111"

But am i right in the modx plugin:

5. Create a plugin using the OnWebLogout system event with the following code:

$e = &$modx->Event;

switch($e->name) {
    case 'OnWebLogout': // integrated logout
            setcookie('Vanilla', ' ', time() - 3600, '/', '.domain.com');
            unset($_COOKIE['Vanilla']);
    break;
}

is no longer needed as no mention in you article. If so what telling vanilla to create the user thats just logged in.

I'm working locally, but will possibly try on a modx dev cloud so at least i know the environment is the same as you tut.

Vanilla will automatically create the user upon logging in via the MODx login.

Hey Susan,

Following your vanilla article:
http://sottwell.com/article-vanilla/

But have the same issue where no user is auto created. In the Original Post of this discussion you create a plugin, but your article doesn't mention it but guessing thats because it was only needed with the "ProxyConnect" vanilla plugin.

Everything else seems to work, the vanilla login has an option to sign in with the modx site and the links direct to the correct pages.

I've tried setting

$secure = false;

in the vanilla snippet to see if it was to do with the client id/secret but same problem.

Any suggestions what I maybe missing.

Thanks

I created completely new login pages exactly as per the Modx instructions, then reset the Vanilla connection settings urls and it still doesn't automatically add a user to the Vanilla users.

This is making my head spin.
