Help with project design
Heya everyone.
I've decided I would like to work on a dynamic website application, something like PHP-Nuke, only my own.
I would like to have it forum-integrated, to phpBB, of course. And when I mean forum-integrated, I mean that the MySQL table the represents users, for example, would be the same one that is used by the forum. That's for one example.
What I am asking you, dear well-exprienced PHP programmers, is to help me wuth understading what are the steps I need to take while planing, designing and implementing this kind of system.
Except for that I would also like it if you guys could tell me what skills I need to have and what I need to know when creating this system (any programming techniques, or secuity issues, for example)
TIA, Pilau.

Start with looking at the database & session structure of phpBB.... that's the best advide I can give you on a starting point. That's how I start with learning my way around how apps work -- though I'm usually looking at OOP which makes far more sense than procedural once you get to that scale. phpBB is notoriously spaghetti-like.

It's not dead it's suspended, since I have a lot of school work, and I need to set up a huge website right now, which is higher in priority than LIFE. But don't worry, I did not forget it.d11wtq wrote:I think that's dead... it's too huge to even contemplate and too much confusion over how to get rollingGrim... wrote:You've already got a project...pilau wrote:I was talking about something that's rather more "where to start" in matters of "what do I need to do" and not "how to do it"
