PHPBB and user-self-registration plugin communicate

Hi, is it possible to let the user-self-registration and the PHPBB forum communicate. When a user registers himself at the forum it works on the blog also. When a user registers themselves at the blog, it also works on the forum.

Thanks

Hi!

It's possible, if someone wrote the whole code for it that mirrors interaction data. It's quite complex.

Actually you'd need to combine serendipity_event_externalauth + serendipity_event_adduser + serendipity_event_forum + phpbb.

I'd calculate about 20 hours for such a coding...so much for the complexity, because neither serendipity nor phpbb was really built to share authentication beyond their own application scope.
