How can I connect my forum to my website so like the forum status is updated? For i.e whenever a new member signs up it would then be sent over to my website to be updated. Any help would be appreciated.

This is a question not related to the title. How can I enable ip baning on my site? I can't edit my title. *sigh

You can ban IP address from cPanel (Use the 'IP Deny Manager')

I'm not to sure about this one. First it would depend on which Forum script you are using. There maybe some API or tutorial out there that would help, but I haven't found one yet.

I can't help much without a little more details, and won't give you a pre-made code since I don't have one, but all you have to do is set a PHP file on your site that will fetch the information from your forum's database.

A quick example:
You want to know who is the latest member registered, normally all you have to do is connect to the database and use something like
Code:
mysql_query(SELECT username FROM users ORDER BY id DESC, LIMIT 1);
and echo the result in your page. Not completely sure about my syntax there as I'm not W3C compliant or anything, and it's only a bit of the code you need, but if you know PHP/MySQL a bit you'll know what I mean. Otherwise I'm sure someone else can pick up from here and give you more advice :)
