What can this extension do?
This extension is a connection between SMF (Simple Machines Forum) and MediaWiki. This causes users who are logged in to SMF to be (created if necessary and) logged in to the wiki. When the session expires or they logout via SMF, they will no longer be logged in to the wiki.

This is ideal for my situation since I desire tight user integration between SMF and MediaWiki, and I require users to be logged in to edit pages. My set of wiki users will be an exact subset of my SMF users, and the admin username is the same.

Installation instructions
1. Download SMF_Authentication.zip.

2. Extract it and upload to the Wiki installation

---> ./wiki/extension/Auth_SMF.php (Handles the authentication of the user)
