phpbb
This is an attempt to organize a group around the phpbb module. The module provides single sign-on and shared user profiles for Drupal and phpBB. It is not a complete integration or a close substitute for the built-in forums in Drupal.
You can use this group to get help with configuration issues or to compare notes on possible bugs. Patches are always welcome :)
Need help with functionality problems
Hello all,
This is my first time on here, so I'm not even sure if this is the correct way to submit a query. Anyway, I installed what was supposed to be an updated version of the phpbb module for drupal from customizations made by Justin Freeman (here: http://groups.drupal.org/node/12949#comment-83937) and everything seemed to go smoothly at first (I followed the instructions given in the install.txt file I have attached - minus disabling 'account activation'). First of all is this the right module and are those install instructions standard for the phpbb module? I also have an existing drupal install, so the assumption of a fresh drupal install in the instructions does not apply in my case - if that is important. But once we get past that, my actual problem is that after I enabled the module in drupal and copied the custom php files from the module's directory over to the appropriate phpbb subdirectories as instructed I now cannot log out of phpbb (I am logged in as the admin - 'phpadmin').

Membership site problems : no syncing after install
Hi, wondering if someone could help me out with this please ?!!
I have a membership site made with Drupal 6.14 (I think) It uses loggintobogan, ubercart ect (not sure if that is relevant or not.) Also in a subdirectory is installed phpbb 3.0.5.
I ran through the install procedure with no real problems (I'm a CSS coder, not really php or mysql...) I wasnt sure about the mysql query, all I could get it to accept was ALTER TABLE users AUTO_INCREMENT = 1000; but when I run diagnostics, no problems come up Just 19 in the list under cookies !!
Clear Documentations
Hello
I'd like to know if any one can help me and provide clear documentations for this module as I am really too much confused.
Co-operation between Drupal and phpBB Communities
I have used phpBB for a long time and consider it the best GPL bulletin board system available. I wish I could easily integrate it into Drupal driven sites (currently 6.14.)
At first glance the phpBBforum Integration module seems to be the solution for D6; however, after closer examination it does not look very practical due to issues associated with keeping both platforms updated without breaking the site.
As much I love phpBB, I think I may have to go with the Drupal Advanced Forum module in order to get a more usable forum functionality for a site.
phpbb and Drupal profile integration
I am working on a site for a client that has phpbb forums integrated with the phpbb module.
We are on D6 and are using Content Profile for user profiles.
I would like to integrate the phpbb profile into the drupal profile that is at user/[user_name]. I would like to have users add all their information and adjust their profiles for both drupal and phpbb on the user edit page in drupal (edit their signatures, maybe board preferences, etc.).
I am completely new to phpbb and I am not an uber coder. Any advice is appreciated, as would any links to sites that do this well.
uid row of drupal_sequences Drupal 5.15/phpBB 3.0.4/MySQL 5.0.67
I can't seem to locate the drupal_users_uid row in the drupal_sequences table. Does anyone know what I'm missing here? My drupal_sequences table has two rows. 'name' and 'id'
I do have a drupal_users table and it does have a uid row. I'm just not sure if this is what I need to edit.
Thanks in advance
Drupal 6.x and phpbb module user sync
I have installed phpbb module on drupal 6.9 but I don't have user sync from phpbb to drupal. Is this supposed to be correct?
Synchronization of Drupal 5.9 and PHPBB 2.x - Single-Sign-on does not work
I am trying to join www.myrockinspace.com/cms and www.rockabilly-forum.de. It is Drupal 5 and PHPBB 2.x. Everything works, apart from the single-sign-on.
I am suspecting some cookie issue.
After an Analysis of the module and the cookies PHPBB sets, I think there should be two cookies:
one named mycookiename_data, and one named mycookiename_sid. (my cookie name is php2rockabilly)
What strikes me, is the _sid one is missing. I only have php2rockabilly_data
Also the format of "Content" of phptorockabilly_data is weird: Firefox shows me the
Drupal RSS problem... help me..
hiii..
i have a drupal website, and a phpbb3 forum (not integrated). and i want to take the last active topic from my phpbb3 forum into my drupal website. i am using an rss generator, and it's working well...
but the problem is the URL that shown in my drupal website is not correct..

but in my drupal site (in this case is output of RSS generator) give this url : www.mydrupalsite.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3t=4 --> (whitout "&" mark)
Change Superuser
I created a superuser account when I set up my new drupal integrated forum. I imported my old forum into my new one. However after importing the old forum into the new one the old superuser account can not log in to the forum anymore. How does the integration module check if it should or should not allow access to the forums for a user?
Regards,
Boris
How to import drupal data into phpbb
I'm using the drupal 5.12 and latest phpbb3.0.3. I have used the drupal core forum for quite a long time, now I want to integrate phpbb to my site, so I need to move these old data from drupal to phpbb:
1) Users in the drupal user table.
2) Content in the old forum
Does anyone have any suggestion on how to do this?
Thanks!

Recent Forum topics only visible if not logged in
I have phpbb3 and drupal 5.12 fresh installs
I can see new topics in the Recent Forum Topics block but after I login to drupal the header remains but the articles disappear.
Recent forum topics block puts a comma in domain name
I have a new phpBB3 install with Drupal Rel 5.12. The installation went rather smoothly.
The "Recent forum topics" block was installed on my drupal page and list items OK, however, the links it display are incorrect and therefore give errors.
The bad links are of the form
http://www,mysite.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2
instead of
http://www.mysite.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2
so the comma in the domain name causes the link to fail
I have searched the database and the installation subdirectories and have not found erroneous domain references.
Any ideas?
Does the module work with Drupal 6?
I know this is probably a stupid question but does this module work with Drupal 6?
Move "Private Message" Link
Hi there,
at first thanks for the module and for all the work on it!
I just installed the module, and everything is working so far (except avatar sync). I am having a small problem, and I hope you can help me on this!
As the Title says I want to move the "Private Message" link to a different menu. I created a menu which is called forum, and I want to have it there. I cannot find the menu item under menu in the administration (also the link disappeares after I entered the menu admin). I also had a look on the included files, but did not found anything.
Syncronize group
I use Drupal 6.x and PhpBB3 integration.
I defined into my Drupal a group named "raffreddato" and into phpBB forum a group with the same name.
I'd like to have syncro between this gruop.
To explain better: when PhpBB create an user, phpbb must check if that user is into a drupal-group and put it in the corresponding group into phpBB-forum.
Is it possible to do it automatically?
Thanks a lot
Request for the group settings
In this group the discussions don't get promoted on the first page of the group if new comments are added.
Its not very usable this way.
Can you change this setting ?
Thanks
