I really love this module and how basic things like registrations, logins and avatars are shared between phpBB and Drupal. But I think it would be great if the connection could be taken a step further. Let's use this thread to discuss how this module could be used to connect phpBB and Drupal in more advanced, customized ways.
For example, let's say I have a block in Drupal that lists the last 10 nodes I published. Is there a way I can call that block in phpBB? It would be great if I could insert some custom php code in my phpBB template and get data from my Drupal installation, and vice versa. They do share the same database after all, so it seems likely. I would greatly appreciate some input on this.
