Using C5's user management system for a separate program

Permalink
I'm using C5 for a client's website who also has a separate php site that runs outside of the C5 confines. I'd like to be able to have the user login through C5 then click a link to go to the php site and have it check to make sure the user is logged in and is apart of a particular group. Has anyone done this or is it even possible?

Thanks!

I have never done anything like that but it's certainly possible.

You just have to know how you can create a session on the second system.

You might be able to create a one time token after the user has signed in on concrete5 and forward that token to the next system which will automatically generate a session as if the user has signed in using a normal form.

It's mostly about the other system, not so much about concrete5..
