What am I doing wrong?")* Hi, To perform a login you have to use Joomla, because it's related to Joomla. But I think that the best will for you will be to have an option to target the serial user instead of the logged user. So I added a new option in the plugin for the next HikaSerial release. The idea is to check the new setting during "onBeforeSerialConsume" and to load the user link to the serial during "onAfterSerialConsume", then depending the new setting, we pass the logged user or the linked user to the function "givePoints".

It is possible to refuse the "guest consuming" like it is possible to restriction the consumption for some specific user groups.

The first part of the option is to check if the user who consume is the same that the user who is assigned (in the case there is one). The second part of the option is to assign if the serial is not already assigned. Regards, --- Jerome - Obsidev.com HikaMarket & HikaSerial developer / HikaShop core dev team.
