Re: [PHP-DB] Discussion board integration

[Skip Evans]

Hey Dave,

Thanks much for the tip. How about the log in 
integration. That was the toughest part about 
phpBB2, at least for me.


I assume MyBB has some kind of independent log in? 
And how tough was it to accept a user ID say from 
a $_SESSION variable and auto-log in the user to 
the BB?


Thanks,
Skip

think it's great! The templating is very simple (By bb standards). It's 
less mature than phpBB, but they fix bugs faster and is quickly becoming 
very stable. It works a lot like vBulletin except it's free and open 
source. I know there is SMF too, but I don't use it, so I really can't 
tell you anything about it.

Hey all,

I've got a requirement for a discussion board on a
new site we are building for a client.

I've integrated phpBB2 for discussion onto
existing sites before, but was wondering if anyone
had any experience with other PHP discussion
boards they favored over phpBB2.

I found the login integration of BB2 especially
troublesome, though I did get it to work in the end.
