Joomla + Kunena SSO Integration on a subdomain

Job ID: 40474643

Budget: $30 – $250 USD

I’m running a Joomla site on the main domain (mysite.com)

and will launch a Kunena forum on a sub-domain (forum.mysite.com) .

The objective is to make both properties feel like a single platform.

What I need from the developer
• Set up reliable single sign-on (SSO) so users log in once and move seamlessly between Joomla and the Kunena forum in the subdomain.
• Keep existing user accounts intact—no duplicates, no lost passwords.
• Style the Kunena theme (menus, colors, logo) so it matches the main site’s look and navigation.
• Provide a short hand-over document outlining the extensions, settings, and any custom code you used so I can maintain the integration later.

Tech specifics
• CMS: Joomla (latest stable version).
• Forum: Kunena on a sub-domain.
• Selected integration level: Single sign-on (SSO).
