1st of all I'd like to state that I am really glad for the fast reply and great support here guys, I was disappointed and was about to give up using phpBB when I posted in their main support forum and no one replied for several days. I am a candidate for some business designations in the field of accounting, finance, auditing, management …etc. I’ve been goggling for any place on the internet where I can find or give help to other candidates but I did not found any at all, so I’ve decided to have my own place specially that I know all information about the discussed designations and it will specialized and dedicated for this purposes only. So I am planning to use a CMS and still comparing Drupal and Joomla, and for the forum I do like to use phpBB because it is really more better then the phpBB2 dramatically. CMS will be used to post news, comments for the news, etc regarding the different designations, and I will need a board where different candidates will be able to communicate and help each others in different aspects regarding how to study and crack the exam …etc. So please advice regarding which CMS to be used and which MOD to be used for the phpBB3?
Thanks |

The tricky issue : phpBB and a CMS.
I mean, of course solutions are plenty, but none is, IMHO, really satisficing unless you do code a bit.
The main thing is sessions sharing, if you want your phpBB user to be able to use the same user and password on the cms, you'll need to have the two sharing the same user base.
In principle, it's not very complicated, but, if you do not know much about php/mysql, it can be a real pain.
Some CMS do offer sessions sharing support module for phpBB3, such as wordpress, with the wp-united module.
I don't know precisely about joomla and manbo with phpBB3, but even if these two are very handy to use for non techie users, and that they offer many really interesting modules for almost every type of needs, I preferred for myself another approach. I tend to use separate software and put up a session sharing myslef.
This is more coding, but, I do not only depend on one application's modules, since you may prefer wordpress for blogs, phpbb for a forum and php cake for your portal.
In your case, word press can be handy if you do not need more than news on the home page, since the sessions sharing exists, it should not be to much work.
But, if a blog is not enough, maybe a more complete cms like drupal would do the trick better, it's an important choice on the long run.
About the several mod rewrite available here for php, it's really as said on the presentation thread, for the advanced mod :
| Quote: | It requires an active moderation and strict rules for topic titles, if the forum is more open.
Because you don't want to end up with 80% of your topic URLs being like "oh-this-is-so-cool-i-can-t-believe-it-vtXX.html", this would end up not optimizing anything anymore.
So this is something that can end up to be tricky to use in some cases.
That's what you should think about before going online with it. |
The phpBB3 version introduces a new feature, the virtual folder trick. It's making the mixed mod a lot more powerful, since you can add the forum url int the topic ones, makes really nice urls since you can choose the forum urls keywords : forum-keywords/topicxx.html
So if you think that you'll have good topic titles in general, you can go for the advanced one, if not, the mixed mod will be easier to deal with.
The simple really is meant for site that do not use a-z characters barely or at all.

Well, I've been reading more for Drupal and phpBB3 and really both are great tools for the long-run website. I'll use the mixed mod for seo. Please I am really can not find the latest version for mixed seo that is compatible with phpBB 3.0.1. Please excuse my dummy question but I am really can not figure it out. Also the instructions to follow would be really appreciated.
Thanks |

That's because the phpBB-seo MOD version compatible with phpBB 3.0.1 isn't released yet. |
