Re: Help me with forum based on CakePHP

I've never used this but found it on the Bakery
http://bakery.cakephp.org/articles/view/phpbb3-api-bridge. If all you
need is decent forum integration (with PHPBB) maybe give that a try.

Ultimately it will still be a headache to try to get different systems
to play nice. I was once asked to integrate an existing vBulletin
forum into a CakePHP app so that they both use the same sessions,
registration, member to member mail, etc. After quite a bit of blood,
sweat and hair pulling I got it to work but it was a mega hack that
took a while to get right (I basically hijacked all of the vBulletin
login/logout/registration/messaging functions and redirected them to
the Cake UI for managing things. This way you could only administer
your account or login, etc via Cake).
