Hi, (excuse for my english)
since few days i searched where is the project for phpbb3 on phpnuke 8.1 but nothing...

So is there people who worked about this ? any news ?

for fun today, i worked a little about it (in waiting someone talk about this project) and i have some bugs with this:

Code:

$user->session_begin();
$auth->acl($user->data);
$user->setup('viewforum');

who use

Code:

$db->sql_return_on_error(true);

and bug..

all function and files before seems good (only for non-admin pages)

it was me who did the first coppermine port for phpnuke but it was easy, but with phpbb3 i have some trouble with sql_return_on_error

So i would know more about a similar project by others people for know if i continue or not working about this.

Tks

No news yet, but glad to see you trying. I doubt we'd see anything from phpNuke's creator. Smile

anyone tackled this yet?

Seems the major thing that needs to be done is the append_sid function in nuke updated to work with phpbb and the one in phpbb3 commented out. Then changing the $phpbb_root_path variable in all the phpbb3 root files... seems thats mostly what needs to be done with modifying files.

For the database I was just thinking you could modify the phpnuke nuke_users table to have the same basic structure as the phpbb3 users table then create a mysql view called phpbb_users that points to the nuke_users table.

For example, replace the following in phpbb3 includes/functions.php

Code:

return $url . (($append_url) ? $url_delim . $append_url . $amp_delim : $url_delim) . $params . ((!$session_id) ? '' : $amp_delim . 'sid=' . $session_id) . $anchor;

with

Code:

$append_sid_url = $url . (($append_url) ? $url_delim . $append_url . $amp_delim : $url_delim) . $params . ((!$session_id) ? '' : $amp_delim . 'sid=' . $session_id) . $anchor;
$append_sid_url = str_replace("modules/phpbb3/", "", $append_sid_url);
$append_sid_url = str_replace("?", "&", $append_sid_url); // As we are already in nuke, change the ? to &
$append_sid_url = str_replace(".php", "", $append_sid_url);
$append_sid_url = "modules.php?name=phpbb3&file=".$append_sid_url; //Change to Nuke format

return $append_sid_url;

This combined with changing the $phpbb_root_path variable in all the files will make most of phpbb3 funciton as a module within nuke. Does the current phpbb2nuke really do much more than that?

Personally I found the changes too difficult. I am going with an easier approach, a loose integration that does not integrate the users tables.

Still working on the code. I will release it as open source once it is done and tested, however I do accept donations (for the time, feeds my late night hunger).

To my knowledge no, there is no "official" or "unofficial" release yet..

i found this :-

Code:

http://nukecode.com/modules.php?name=Downloads&op=getit&lid=1531

Code:

Download Profile: phpNuke to phpBB3 Bridge 3.0.2
phpBB Version 3.0.2 Bridge for phpNUKE Version 7.5 - 8.1.

Install:
You need to install a phpBB 3 version (actually the most recent is the 3.0.1) in a folder forums inside your phpnuke installation as explained in the installation files and follow the instruction (the automatic installation process made for phpBB 3.0.1, is very easy to make).

Why a bridge instead of an integrated module?
In order to keep the integrity (the quality) of the excellent code provided by phpBB group with phpBB 3.X and in order to keep both part (phpnuke and phpBB 3) easily updatable, the bridge utilisation seems to be the best solution to me.

That's a osc2 guy's work to bridge phpnuke user accounts and phpBB3. But you need to embed phpBB3 inside of wrapped phpnuke.

I started to port phpBB3 3.0.4 to phpnuke 8.1 for personal usage. I named it very stupidly like 'BB3Nuke' I think phpBB3 port is not too difficult job but no time for this. But from time to time, I will talk to public what is going on "BB3Nuke porting project."
