If anyone else needs this kind of integration, i have a pre-built script that can verify a users login creds and display the users group along with one custom profile field.

feel free to add me on skype if you would like a copy of this script.

php script
to get usergroup by username search

<?php
header ("Content-Type:text/xml");
define("IN_MYBB", 1);
require_once "./global.php";
require_once "./inc/functions_time.php";

$user = $db->simple_select("users", "*", "username='".$mybb->input['username']."'");

if($mybb->input['username'] && $db->num_rows($user) != 0)
{
$user = $db->fetch_array($user);
$usergroupcache = $cache->read("usergroups");

$doc = new DOMDocument();
$doc->formatOutput = true;

$u = $doc->createElement("user");
$doc->appendChild($u);









$usergroup = $doc->createElement("usergroup");
$usergroup->appendChild($doc->createTextNode($usergroupcache[$user['usergroup']]['gid']));



$numthreads = $db->simple_select("threads", "COUNT(tid) as count", "uid = ".$user['uid']);
$numthreads = $db->fetch_field($numthreads, "count");




$timesearch = TIME_NOW - $mybb->settings['wolcutoffmins']*60;
$query = $db->simple_select("sessions", "location,nopermission", "uid='".$user['uid']."' AND time>'".$timesearch."'", array('order_by' => 'time', 'order_dir' => 'DESC', 'limit' => 1));
$session = $db->fetch_array($query);

if ($db->num_rows($query) == 0)
{
$onlinestatustext = "Offline";
}
else
{
require_once MYBB_ROOT."inc/functions_online.php";
$lang->load("online");
$location = fetch_wol_activity($session['location'], $session['nopermission']);
$location = build_friendly_wol_location($location);
$onlinestatustext = "Online - ".strip_tags($location);
}






$u->appendChild($usergroup);





echo $doc->saveXML();
}
else
{
error("invalid user");
}
?>

Public Sub checkusergroup()



Dim request As System.Net.HttpWebRequest = System.Net.HttpWebRequest.Create("http://www.haxcore.net/forum/5.php?username=" & ReactorTextBox1.Text)

Dim response As System.Net.HttpWebResponse = request.GetResponse()
Dim sr As System.IO.StreamReader = New System.IO.StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream())
Dim usergroup As String = sr.ReadToEnd()

If usergroup.Contains("<usergroup>4</usergroup>") Then 'admin
MsgBox("Welcome admin Member")

Form2.ReactorButton2.Visible = True 'This turn on the VIP side of the loader
ElseIf usergroup.Contains("<usergroup>5</usergroup>") Then 'super mod
MsgBox("Welcome registeredr")
Form2.ReactorButton1.Visible = True
ElseIf usergroup.Contains("7") Then 'mod
MsgBox("Welcome Staff Member")
'ReactorButton4.Visible = True
ElseIf usergroup.Contains("<usergroup>19</usergroup>") Then ' CA VIP
MsgBox("Welcome retired Staff Member")
Form2.ReactorButton3.Visible = True

MsgBox("You have been banned by a Forum Staff member! Please contact anyone of the staff to appeal your ban. In order to secure the loader you have been banned on the loader and forums!", MsgBoxStyle.Critical, "AmazingHacks.net Ban Message")
