Magento / Drupal Integration

Posted by tjholowaychuk on January 16, 2008 at 8:18pm

I can not seem to dig up the articles, but I do recall alot of talk about integrating Magento with Drupal or vice-versa to at least some level. Anyone who has knowledge of plans or actions that will / have been taken towards this please feel free to post.

I am intrested in this topic as well.
You probably already know this node:
http://groups.drupal.org/node/3781
Also I have read at magentocommerce.com that something is planned in this direction.

I have quite along time ago

I have quite along time ago but I could not find the post haha thanks.

I am surprised we have not heard any more news on this yet, I feel almost bad using Drupal e-commerce solutions when Magento is so polished, however then I feel bad not using Drupal for the flexibility and knowledge I already have with it, looking forward to seeing what they do.

I never seen this e-commerce

Posted by AlexEvt on March 20, 2008 at 8:33pm

I never seen this e-commerce before. Looks very nice. And integration with Drupal is a great idea.
But i briefly looked at their documentation and didn't find any topics about integration, API, etc...
Also i looked at the forum and found that topic http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewthread/104/ .
Peoples are not optimistic about such integration there.

I think that such a integration is too difficult and planning it at this stage could bring only problems. We don’t know what changes in Magento core appear in next releases, so building integration now can be a waste of time.

If you think about it, Magento is in some sense a CMS already. Although as e-commerce software, its focus is on managing ‘product’ content.

While, for example, I can think of a lot of features that Drupal has that Magento doesn’t, a lot of the groundwork has already been laid. Trying to integrate 2 complex systems (such as Magento and Typo3 or Drupal) is a very difficult thing, that to my mind is a waste of time that will most likely have sub-standard results.

What CMS features are people looking for that Magento doesn’t have? Maybe it would be worth developing these features specifically for Magento.

Think positive!!!

There is a lot of interest

as you can read here in the magento blog: http://www.magentocommerce.com/blog/comments/magento-drupal-integration-...

But it is vague so far where and how these two projects should connect.

Done !

Single Sign On

Posted by laurie112 on December 3, 2010 at 12:46am

Hey mannejkumar... Just a quick thought... Assuming you want to run a Drupal Instance & Magento Instance under the same domain and have a singluar login function... Could you not use Facebook Connect functionality... I know that both Druapl & Magento have an implementation... and as soon as you where logged into facebook both instances would respond like you are logged in!!! This is a thought and I have not tried it, but I would be intrested if you gave it a go... L

wow!!!! its very interesting

Posted by mannejkumar on December 3, 2010 at 6:16am

Hi laurie 5 stars for your suggestion . i will try facebook integration but i need some personal details of them like mobile no, email, address etc and i want to use admin approval for registration.is it possible?

Single Sign On - Facebook

Posted by laurie112 on December 3, 2010 at 6:36am

Hey mannejkumar... as I said I have not implemented this myself but I recognise that Facebook "Single Sign-on" could provide an independant bridge for login that would resolve your issue...

To what extent the Magento and Drupal implement Facebook "Single Sign-on" I am not sure, but the Facebook documentation provides details of what information is available to you when a user logins using the "Single Sign-on"... http://developers.facebook.com/docs/guides/web#login

If you implement this I would and I'm sure others would to as to how you get on and if it was fit for your purpose...

Thank you i will try and let
