By default, only the configured authentication backend is available for users.
</p>
<p>
Contrary to <a href="../../documentation/1.9/authmulti.html" class="wikilink1" title="documentation:1.9:authmulti">multiple backend stacking</a>, backend choice will present all available authentication methods to users, who will choose the one they want.
</p>
<p>
The choice will concern three backends:
</p>
<ul>
<li class="level1"><div class="li"> Authentication</div>
</li>
<li class="level1"><div class="li"> Users</div>
</li>
<li class="level1"><div class="li"> Password</div>
</li>
</ul>
<p>
The choosen backends will be registered in session:
</p>
<ul>
<li class="level1"><div class="li"> <code>$_auth</code></div>
</li>
<li class="level1"><div class="li"> <code>$_userDB</code></div>
</li>
<li class="level1"><div class="li"> <code>$_passwordDB</code></div>
</li>
</ul>
<p>
Authentication choice will also be registered in session:
</p>
<ul>
<li class="level1"><div class="li"> <code>$_authChoice</code></div>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<!-- EDIT3 SECTION "Presentation" [111-649] -->

<div class="level2">

In Manager, go in <code>General Parameters</code> &gt; <code>Authentication modules</code> and choose Choice for authentication.
</p>
<p>
<p><div class="noteimportant">When <code>Choice</code> is selected for authentication, values for Users and Password modules are not used anymore. Also, all backends parameters are displayed.
</div></p>
</p>
<p>
Then, go in <code>Choice Parameters</code>:
</p>
<ul>
<li class="level1"><div class="li"> <strong><abbr title="Uniform Resource Locator">URL</abbr> parameter</strong>: parameter name used to set choice value (default: <code>lmAuth</code>)</div>
</li>
<li class="level1"><div class="li"> <strong>Allowed modules</strong>: click on <code>New choice</code> to add a choice.</div>
