Hi all - I have a website fully developed and now want to include a forum. I've looked around, and I've heard good things about Vanilla and I've seen documentation showing how to integrate Vanilla into a (general) PHP-based site. (Unified logins between site and forum is really the only thing I require.. I don't need a flashy all-the-bells-and- whistles forum package.)
At any rate, I wanted to pick the collective brain as to the best way to accomplish this. I've read a few posts where people said they have accomplished this but I haven't been able to find any documentation or walkthroughs. Should I attempt to set this up as a vendor? Should I just set it up outside of my Cake structure and perhaps use an IFRAME to show the forum page(s)? Some other way I haven't though of? If you do point me in the direction of setting it up as a vendor - I've not worked with this before, so how would calling the vendor application integrate with my page? (If you think of all the links/pages in a forum, I'm just wondering how that would correspond to the Cake convention of each method of a controller equating to a page/view.) I'm a relative newbie to Cake, so apologies in advance if it seems I'm not approaching the question properly. I usually exhaust all documentation I can find (I was able to build a relatively complex site without ever having to ask a question), but in this case I've not been able to find any documentation or previous experiences from people who have integrated a forum package with their existing Cake application.
