It didnt work for me on Joomla 1.5.
Tried all possible combinations. Some support on the site would have been useful.

Well Done!

This plugin gets the job done.

One of my clients wanted to automate the process for updating data in their Joomla intranet site with data from their legacy Active Directory.

This plugin provided an essential step in setting up the cron job.

I would like to suggest, for next release of this plugin to be a component with the ability to set up multiple autologin with multipe users and multiple redirect urls.

This app is a freebie, but it's worth a lot! I was looking for a solution that would log a user in automatically after submitting a custom registration form that I made with Breezing Forms.

I found this, installed it, changed 1 line of code in my form and BINGO!! The user was automaticlly logged in.

Also works for sending links to you users, just append the link with &user=theusername&passw=thepassword. You can also use the encrypted version of the password from jos_users.

Special thanks to the developer for being awesome!!
