* (I got this code from the phpbb forums – I have yet to clean it up) * You can see that wordpress and phpbb require the same basic information (Username, email, password [sorta]) to create a user.

Unfortunately, it’s not. I’ve done about 2 days worth of searching to see if anyone has come up with an easy method to do this. WPHPBB is a solution that will not work for me. I know how to bridge the logins. While this has been discussed before on the wordpress support forums, there haven’t actually been any responses that don’t point to a simple login bridge or some bastardization of wordpress’s comment system. * There’s got to be a solution for this that doesn’t involve major hacks. * Here’s what I’ve been trying to do: * $query2 = “INSERT INTO phpbb_users (username, user_email, user_password) VALUES(‘ $user_login’, ‘#user_email’, MD5(‘$password’) “; mysql_pconnect(“db.com”,”username”,” password”) or die(“Unable to connect to SQL server”); mysql_select_db(“cnoisewp”) or die(“Unable to select database”); mysql_query($query2) or die(“Insert Failed!”); * Beneath wordpress’s query to its own database. My understanding is that this will submit the variables that have been defined by wordpress’s form into phpbb’s database thereby creating a user. However, I always get an “Insert failed!” error. I’m going to try posting my problems on both Sitepoint and PHPBB’s forum to see if they can help me out. * I’ve possibly been going about this backwards – Maybe I should submit PHPBB’s form data to wp’s user table. * To be continued.. * Thread Starter [kpeatt](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kpeatt/) * (@kpeatt) * [20 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/melding-phpbb-and-wordpress-registration/#post-298285) * Well, I’ve got the registrations integrated now. When you sign up for WordPress it automatically creates a user with the same information in PHPBB. Now I just have to fix the “Change password” code so when you change it in one program it automatically changes it in the other. That shouldn’t be too difficult. * [azneternity](https://wordpress.org/support/users/azneternity/) * (@azneternity) * [20 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/melding-phpbb-and-wordpress-registration/#post-298306) * How did you do this? can you please post how you integrated the two.
