Hi Nant. In a previous
thread
you stated:
As I understand it the only thing removed is the ability to link a K2 author name back to a CB profile.
I just need to clarify this as I'm considering upgrading to the new K2 despite the lack of integration. I'm not a programmer but I've somehow managed to configure K2 and CB to work together using Auto Actions and the existing (now out-dated) K2 integration and they seem to be working well so far.
So, before I upgrade and then have to either reinstall the old K2 if this upgrade doesn't work (not sure if I can just reinstall the old version or will have to unpack my backed up site) I just wanted to clarify what the current integration does and how it will be affected:
Currently - when someone registers via CB, K2/CB automatically create a K2 account with the same username. Once confirmed and approved, the user is added to a specific K2 user group via Auto Actions. They can then edit assigned K2 articles via the K2 front-end editor after logging in via CB.
So - if I upgrade - does this mean that if a user logs in via CB, they'll no longer be able to edit K2 articles, as their K2 and CB profiles will no longer be linked unless you guys re-integrate? This is make or break for my website so if this is the case, K2 have dumped me (and a bunch of others) in the deep end.
