Loging in with Steam into Ulysses?
« on: November 29, 2012, 09:44:47 AM »
I always woundered why this forum did not have a login with steam feature, also have you ever concidered giving it a face lift to make it look more attractive? (IMO there should be way more people passing through here.)

We don't have time to program a steam login for the forums, and there is no mod for this currently available (great to read comments in that link though, people who don't understand software are funny).

I quite like this forum theme... :)

What about this...

Code: [Select]
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xrds:XRDS xmlns:xrds="xri://$xrds" xmlns="xri://$xrd*($v*2.0)">
<XRD>
<Service priority="0">
<Type>http://specs.openid.net/auth/2.0/server</Type>
<URI>https://steamcommunity.com/openid/login</URI>
</Service>
</XRD>
</xrds:XRDS>

You already have OpenID on here, you just need to slightly modify it... ( http://steamcommunity.com/dev ) ( http://whatthefrag.net/2011/10/steam-openid-explained/ )
And drop one of the nice buttons onto here.

Hellfox, you seem to have more time than we do.
Please feel free to write one, test it on your own dev SMF/PHP box, and post it on the SMF forums Mod download site.
Not only would it be a good addition here, I'm sure MANY people in the SMF admin community would appreciate it.
