Forum/Blog Comment scripts

JuggaDaku · 07-29-2007, 09:14 PM

Im wondering if it is possible to have members from your site's forums post comments to your blogs with their forum accounts. I'm wanting to add this feature to a site of mine to let members be known throughout the site. Thanks.

Hello again. Im just wondering if anyone on the board knows whether it can be done or has been. Surely someone has a yes or no answer. Thanks.

Yes, it's possible. How easy it is to implement is another matter. It basically depends on which forum and blog software you're using. For certain combinations, mods already exist to do this. For others, you'd need to code something by hand, basically by having your blog software authenticate against your forum software.

cef is exactly right. Which blog and forum are you running on your website? I am thinking more than likely php/mysql would be the best tool to accomplish this but that depends on what you are using.

Nothing so far. I wanted to get an idea before i chose what to use. Any idea of which one would be best? Thanks for your help so far, much appreciated.

I think you can integrate Joomla with PHPBB, not absolutely sure though.
