Set WP User data from external database

  • My problem – I want the WP-POLLS plugin to have access to my site’s user info from an external database without having to import all the external database user into the WP database.

    I have my site’s users login with a separate login function (not WP’s login).

    What I am experiencing is all the users who complete a poll on WP-POLLS plugin all are logged as Guest and I want their first and last names to be logged instead – and that is info I have in the users’ session variables during their visit to the site.

    How do I populate the WP_USER object with the variables from the user session?
