Is it possible to connect a Webflow membership website to a Discourse forum using Single Sign-On (SSO) integration?
Yes, it is possible to connect a Webflow membership website to a Discourse forum using Single Sign-On (SSO) integration. Here's how you can achieve this:
Set up a Discourse forum: First, create and configure your Discourse forum. Make sure you have admin access to the forum and have enabled Single Sign-On (SSO) in the forum settings.
Obtain the SSO secret and URL: In your Discourse forum settings, you will find an SSO secret key and URL. Copy these values as you will need them later while configuring Webflow.
Set up the Webflow membership system: In Webflow, set up your membership system by creating a collection for members, adding necessary fields (such as name, email, password, etc.), and configuring access rules.
Enable SSO in Webflow: In your Webflow project settings, navigate to the Membership section and enable the SSO feature. Enter the Discourse SSO URL obtained in step 2.
Configure SSO settings in Discourse: Go back to your Discourse forum and navigate to the SSO settings. Here, you need to provide the SSO URL and secret key from Webflow. Save the settings.
Test the SSO integration: Once the setup is complete, test the SSO integration by creating a new user in Webflow and then logging in to the Discourse forum. The login credentials should now work seamlessly across both platforms.
It's important to note that setting up SSO integration between Webflow and Discourse requires technical knowledge and understanding of both platforms. If you're not confident in doing it yourself, consider consulting a developer or contacting Webflow and Discourse support for assistance.
