Lets you login to MyBB with your Minecraft account.

Project Details

Minecraft Connect will let you login to your MyBB forum with your Minecraft/Mojang account details! All you need to do is add link your Minecraft account to your MyBB account in the UserCP and then you're good to go! Registration with Minecraft planned for future release.

Please donate so I can keep making plugins!

Requirements:
  • MyBB 1.8.* (tested on vanilla 1.8.6)
  • PHP >= 5.3
  • cURL enabled with SSL
  • Valid CA root certificate bundle on your server.  This is to secure our connection to Mojang and block Man-in-the-Middle attacks. View installation section below if you need to install one.
Installation:
Unzip the file into your MyBB root directory. Install from ACP as you would any other plugin.
** If the plugin installs correctly you have cURL set up properly!!! This means you don't have to wory about the next installation step!! **

Installation (add new CA cert bundle):
Again, if the plugin installed correctly with no errors then you most likely do not need to worry about this part. Most servers should come with a Certificate Authority cert bundle of some kind pre-installed but if yours doesn't all you need to do is go to this link and copy everything in that file, save it on your server as cacert.pem somewhere that php can access. Then open your php.ini file and add
curl.cainfo=PATH/TO/cacert.pem
, (change PATH/TO to your actual absolute path to the file) save and restart your server and you should be good to go. If you can't figure it out post in here or a support thread, or honestly just do a simple Google search and it should be pretty straightforward.

Usage:
  1. Login with your MyBB info like normal.
  2. Go to UserCP and click the Minecraft Connect link (try clearing your cache, it make take a minute or two to show up)
  3. Link your Minecraft account
  4. Once your MC account is successfully linked you can log out and log in freely with your MC info
  5. Revisit the UserCP tab if you wish to unlink your account at any time

Please report any bugs in the plugin support forum or this plugin's release thread.

Hope you all enjoy!
