Can it be incorperated with phpbb

hi i was wondering when you install it asks if you have phpbb i have always clicked no but then i thought if i click yes i wondered if i can incorporate it with my phpbb forum. thanks advarntek

Yes - but this just places an integrated link to your phpbb forum on yur ZC sidebox.

Make sure that it is installed and the ZC Install will find it

where does it appear i did a fresh install and can see no link

If done during the ZenCart Install with the phpbb install already existing on the same account then it is in the Information sidebox

I have it set up in both config.php and in my store settings but yet I cannot get the link to show. What am I missing?

puggy,

Did you set this up upon the Zen Cart install or try to link later?

Post the path to your phpbb install and the configure.php entry for the phpbb line.

  define('DIR_WS_PHPBB','/forum/');

Is this what you are asking for?

define('DIR_WS_PHPBB','/home/poserund/public_html/forum/');

Also when I had it like this the link the did show but took me herehttp://www.poserunderground.com/cart//forum/index.php when it should have took me to http://www.poserunderground.com/forum/index.php

Found it and now got it to work
code should have been

 define('DIR_WS_PHPBB',' ../forum/'); 

That I had this solved. The links shows up, but when a new user creates an account and adds user name and password gets this:

1062 Duplicate entry '' for key 2 in:
[insert into phpbb_users (user_id, username, user_password, user_email, user_regdate) values ('84', 'Test', '4962b908af25d72ea50e622d35486286', '[email protected]', '1190646828')]

Just trying to make a test account to make sure it does work. Verified no user called test and I know the email never has been used in either place.

:oops: Forgot to mention I am using Zen cart 1.3.7 PHP Version: 4.4.1 and PhpBB3 RC5.

BUMP sorry for this

The Zen Cart integration support for phpBB was designed for phpBB v2 and has not been upgraded to support phpBB v3 at this time.

That may happen in the future, but it's not high on the priorities list at the present moment. Sorry.

That is a real shame. I have phpbb3 installed from my old store site. I was hopeing that this would be atleast one thing I didnt have to worry about. I looked for a downgrade, from phpbb3 to phpbb2 but this is not posible either.

I down graded back to PhpBB2 due to other issues I was having with the PHPBB3. There is a glitch in the inactive users when you try from the admin to activate them if they are using a .ru or .us email. I have communicated with the developers of this and it has to due with the only 2 letters where the board is looking for 3 letters.
