Modifying phpBB to use different security model

Post by Slippy »

Has anybody had much success taking a wicked / free phorum like phpBB and then adding their own existing user base.

I have an existing site that uses postgreSQL, Apache & PHP that has users that are already registered. I would like to add a phorum to a discussion section that will work when I "Add" a level of security to the existing forum application. (sessions, encrypted passwords (using custom algo's), https and other precautions that are site wide (via includes) and better than what I can get with the existing application).

I had pretty good success at using L-forum, but I would prefer something more robust.

Anybody have any recomendations or "crazy" :twisted: ideas that could help?
