Just a housekeeping note that there is a new SSO process that uses the Convio SSO APIs with Convio as master. This document is located:

and streamlines some of the steps that were necessary in the previous method.

Will the original method continue to work, or are there plans to deprecate it?

Yes, the original method will continue to work as expected but there are some big benefits of using the new method. Error handling and messages user experiance can be customized to a much greater degree with the new APIs for single sign on.

"Remember me" does not seem to be working with SSO. We had complaints about it so I hid or remember me checkbox on our login form. Should it work, or is there something that needs to be done in order for it to work?

I have it as a hidden field and have not had any reports of problems. (which of course doesn't mean something hasn't changed on Convio's side)

Actually, now that I think about it, it might be a combined effect of the 15 session timeout.

What happens when the session expires. Does the site then remember you?

So if my 15 minute session hack-around works, then maybe my complaints about this will go away as well.
