Drupal Menu integration into phpBB

Events happening in the community are now at Drupal community events on www.drupal.org.

Using the instructions described on http://drupal.i1media.no/ I made a Drupal website with phpBB included. Everything works fine, but like in the example I wanted to show the menu from my Drupal also in phpBB.
For now I've changed the phpBB templates and added the menu in simple HTML code, but off course when I want to add a menu item, I have to do this manually. Is there a way to link the menu from Drupal in my phpBB templates? How is it done in the example on http://drupal.i1media.no/?

I just did it manually on

I just did it manually on drupal.i1media.no, since I don't expect to change the primary links more than twice a year. It is very easy, just a cut'n'paste from "view source" of the front page in Firefox.

But it should not be hard to pull this out of the menu table in Drupal. Put the code in phpBB3/include/functions.php , so that the variable becomes available to all templates.

codemann, if you happen to

I need some help with the Drupal/phpBB menu

Hi,

I've just installed this module, and I'm very impressed with it. I'm havin a small issue though, and I'd really appreciate any advice on it.

I have installed the module, and activated it. It all seems to be working fine, except for one thing. When I go to http://www.mywebsite.com/forum, the Drupal menu disappears and I only see the PHPBB menu.

I'd like it to keep the menu, but display the board index beneath that, so the user can still navigate to other Drupal pages.

I'm running phpBB 3, and the latest version of the module as of 27 January 2008 (Version 2.0 I think)

You mentioned that you manually updated the menu on drupal.i1media.no, I'm happy to do that on my website, but could you please let me know which file(s) I have to update, and what code is required for the menu.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks and regards
Gary
