Hi!

Can I integrate a forum made with IPB into Geeklog?

Regards,
Ernesto.

Short answer: No.

Long answer: You may (or may not) have some luck with the CMS bridge or you may be better off converting your board to Geeklog's forum plugin.

Use the search function, all these options have been discussed before (for IPB as well as for other forums).

bye, Dirk

What about just having a block that pulls the last 5 topics posted from the standard 2.0 installation?

TheHeggy, generally, the *ugly* part is that users will need to register for the geeklog site (if they want to play) *AND* register for the forum (if they want to post).

It's a pain when they need two separate logins for what should be one site.

That's why everybody prefers to go 'integrated' - the 'other' modules get hacked to use Geeklog user accounts.
