[Solar-talk] Verifying Login Status

[Raymond Kolbe]

In the config for auth it should be:

$config['Solar_Auth'] = array(
    'adapter'        => 'Solar_Auth_Adapter_Sql',
    'table'            => 'users',
    ''handle_col'   => 'username',
    'passwd_col'  => 'password',
    'uid_col'         => 'id',
)

You shouldn't have to specify the 'process_login' key since this is pulled
from the locale settings (just add 'PROCESS_LOGIN => 'Login' in your locale
file (mine is en_US.php).

Hope that helps.
