Hi there, I'm new to these parts, would welcome any guidance. Please!
Got Limesurvey running in a pretty standard LAMP-type intranet instance with an internal SSO, so in-app security isn't a huge consideration. Rather than going for a full integration with SSO, I'm preferring to use the Limesurvey users table with SSO details (uid and a number).
I want to make Limesurvey admin as open as possible to everyone, so designed a Register page which takes values out of the header responses and creates a new Limesurvey account.
But then I want to bypass the existing Admin login entirely. How would I do this? I just want to read the necessary values from the HTTP headers, and go straight through, as an account would already have been created. But looking at the existing Login page, it's a little bit unclear to me what is being sent where. I spent some hours on this yesterday, but I'm sure it can't be that hard. It's just:
- Pick up values from the HTTP header (I can do this part)
- Submit these to Limesurvey authentication
- Proceed to admin menu.
