Openfire help. Custom database (tables,fields)

Question

I created a database for my chat application, which has, for example, more fields on the "user" table. How can I implement it in openfire?

I've already connected openfire to a mysql external database on my server.

Thanks.

Answer 1

Have you tried with vCard ?

Surely if you connect your Openfire instance with an LDAP server you can retrieve other user fields (Organization unit, phone number, ...) using vCard.

Maybe this approach could work also for custom database integrated in Openfire; check also this posts which seem to suggest so:
