if user's authenticated, grab group database

code: select all


   /**
    * authenticateuser
    *
    * @abstract authentic user in jos_users
    *
    * @param string $username
    * @param string $password
    *
    * @return bool
    */
   function authenticateuser($username, $password)
   {
      // global jauthentication object
      jimport( 'joomla.user.authentication');
      $auth = & jauthentication::getinstance();
      $credentials = array( 'username' => $username, 'password' => $password );
      $options = array();
      $response = $auth->authenticate($credentials, $options);

      if( $response->status === jauthenticate_status_success )
      {
         $database =& jfactory::getdbo();
         $database->setquery( 'select gid #__users username = '.$database->quote( $username ).' , gid = 25' );
         return (bool)($database->query());
      }
      return false;
   }
