Integrate CodeIgniter with phpBB3 User System

Question

Is there a way to integrate CodeIgniter with phpBB3? I would like to use the user system as a base for my future CodeIgniter Application.

Is it a good idea to use phpBB as a base user system?

Answer 1

As Thorpe pointed out, you can use phpBB3 Library available on CodeIgniter's website.

Along with that, you could create a phpBB user group and assign only "real" users to that group and have your CI authentication check for that group. This way, you won't get Googlebot peeking where it's not supposed to.

Answer 2

kuroir. You can look into http://codeigniter.com/wiki/phpBB3_library/ which is in the CodeIgniter wiki.
