Hi,

I’m using Radiant to create a small website. Part of the website needs  
to interact with some custom tables in the database, such as user  
account information, and will let the user add/edit/delete some custom  
objects associated with their account. I will need for new users to  
sign up and login - but these users will not be editing any pages on the  
site. I don’t think the current user system will work, am I right?

So basically, part of my website is a normal ‘brochure-type’ website,  
which will try to get users to sign up. The other part of the website  
will be a normal Rails app or Radiant extension.

I searched the Radiant extension registry, but did not find any  
extensions for custom user signup/login and session maintenance. Does  
anyone know of any that I missed and could use? If not, I will create a  
new extension. Does anyone know which extension I could best use as a  
starting point?

Thanks!  
Marc
