Using Config File

To change configuration options simply edit the config/ion_auth.php file.

Config

Edit the ion_auth $config array as needed:

'tables['groups']' - The table name to use for the groups table. DEFAULT is 'groups'.
'tables['users']' - The table name to use for the users table. DEFAULT is 'users'.
'tables['users_groups']' - The table name to use for the users groups table. DEFAULT is 'users_groups'.

Compatibility with CodeIgniter v2

CodeIgniter v2 requires the class file names to be lowercase. In order to support this follow the standard installation procedures and then either rename the following files or create symlinks: models/Ion_auth_model.php => models/ion_auth_model.php controllers/Auth.php => controllers/auth.php
