Gosh, hope I can explain this well enough.

OK I have to scripts:
1. Forums
2. Gaming Script (Ladders/Tournments)

I want to have it where users can move back and forth without having to register once for the forums and once for the gaming part of it, I know its possible, I just can't figure it out.

Any help?

set your gaming script login system to use the forum database

yeah you can use the db of forum for game login too.

Would setting the DB to the forum work? I mean the Gaming one has ladders and teams to join that go off of the Gaming ones profile, would that make a difference? If not how would I do it.

then maybe use the Gaming script user table for the forum instead.

I'm having the same issue at the moment: trying to integrate an existing log-in script for a social-networking site with that of phpBB3's database.

I'm fairly new to PHP myself, and I think I would be looking for the exact syntax necessary to insert the username/password info from the social-networking site's log-in page, to the phpBB3 forums' username/password database tables.


If I had the right syntax i'm sure I could plug it in, but I just don't happen to know what it is.
