Application Development & Systems Integration
The project connected a Drupal account system with the Lithium community platform.
I built the custom module providing two-way authentication, with Drupal handling login, registration and credential recovery.
Users could return to the Lithium page they came from after an account operation.
Keeping account operations together avoids asking two platforms to independently manage the same credential lifecycle.

A custom module for integrating the Lithium community platform with Drupal. It allows two-way authentication.
Drupal is responsible for all the user account operations including the login process, account registration and credentials recovery. After every operation, the user is sent back to the page they came from on the Lithium platform.
