Abstract
========

The ning_integration module is currently a single module whose purpose is to
allow authentication via one or more Ning networks. This module allows:
- mixed authentication (Drupal + Ning) or exclusive (only Ning);
- authentication via multiple networks (with precedence management);
- synchronization of passwords (optional);
- adaptation of Drupal standard forms;
- roles mapping between the two systems.

Installation
============
1. Unpack the ning_integration folder and contents in the appropriate modules
   directory of your Drupal installation. This is probably sites/all/modules/
2. Download the Ning API PHP Library at
   https://github.com/ning/ning-api-php/tarball/3f86d00ee791d4c39165003090b66d24fe5b3a4f
   then extract the two files located in /src and copy it in the
   ning_integration/includes subfolder.
3. Enable the Ning integration module in the administration tools.
4. If you're not using Drupal's default administrative account, make
   sure "administer ning integration" is enabled through access control
   administration.
5. Visit the Ning settings page and make appropriate configurations.
