A Few Important MYSQL Questions

[dweng]

Currently I have Joomla installed onto my website which is http://www.fallenangel.pcriot.com but I also want to integrate a phpbb forum into it. Meaning I want to create a forum within Joomla using the phpbb forum script. But the question is that if I want to have a forum in my website I would also like to have the same users as my joomla website. Which brings us to the question. If I use my joomla table for installing the phpbb forum would it overwrite the joomla tables or would it just integrate? Please help

I am not sure about Joomla but certainly Drupal provide that facility.

k it would overwrite the tables but i think you can edit the source files to like take the user database from joomla and use that with phpbb but im not sure if that is possible maybe if you look around the phpbb mod forum section there might be an interrogator or maybe like request or bring up the idea.

You can try searching for an extension on the Joomla sites that can bridge Joomla with phBB so that there exists only one user login for both Joomla and phBB.
