This question regards creating a new user from a 3rd party Simple Subscriptions/Recurly component first then using CB to manage the profiles and login.
Our goal is to use the Recurly subscriptions management system to handle user creation and manage their subscriptions and payments.
Recurly will be integrated with Joomla using Alledia's Simple Subscriptions component which creates the user account in Joomla and manages their user group(s) settings.
With Recurly/Simple Subscriptions, we would only allow people to log in from the joomla site once their account is set up but do not want them to be able to create their account from the joomla site.
Today, we allow the user to create their user account now and it works very smoothly.
However, we are being required to use Recurly for the subscription/payment solution and that will create the user account in Joomla.
OUR QUESTION: Can we use CB to set up their CB profile under this scenario? What would we need to do:
We use CB now and love it's stability and sure don't want to change if we don't have to.
Suggestions? Insights we can use to accomplish our objective?
You need to use CB API to create your users if you want to utilize CBs profile and functionality. Otherwise the two will go out of sync and CB will think they're unconfirmed and unapproved, which will result in their login begin denied. To do this please see the below API example for registering users correctly in CB 2.x.
