The only way I can see a Post Nuke and UBB link up is the PHP call thats used in UBBNews etc. (Or you can use it if your calling to a .php page) But Post Nuke is still pretty new to me. All I know if you need to create a block of some sort and put the code in. Or something like that.

I have Postnuke running and have a couple PHP forums that sync up no problemo. I imagine threads should be easy to do. we know what the short comings for getting UBB to work are. That's why I'm talking about a project that is "similar" to the way that postnuke is being developed but for UBB Portal instead.

why don't we start an Open Source project using PostNuke or *other* as a base? if it's Open Source we can easily get hosting and other resources from SourceForge or any other Open Source hosting sites.

I'm glad we're on the right track with PN. I'm still new to it though, only been using it fdor 2 weeks or so. I know how the blocks and that work, but no idea on where the code should be added etc.

Still learning.

LD, go to www.madhatt.info and check out the Encompass engine.

OMG OMG I found something....

http://www.cyberty.nl/

It uses UBBNews and Latest Threads and is on PN!

Maybe he could give us code...:/

It doesn't have the one thing that I feel it absolutely needs and that's a single login.

*Goes to find Variables*

I've been wanting to know how to do that for ages..

I'm gonna PM him to check this thread.

We don't use ubb news but the latest threads. To do this go to your postnuke admin section and choose to make a new block. It has to be a core/php block and put this in it:

include ("http://www.yoursite.com/ubb/latest_threads_1.html");

Sounds easy enough.

Thanks Variables.

Bah, I forgot to add the space after include...

Thanks Variables

Well I got WOL and Latest Threads on my PN, and I'm glad somehow something from the UBB shows up on PN.

Now for more.

Allen eluded that a beta of the UBBPortal is close to being done.

I spent a good while working on it last night... just the beginning stages of layout. We'll have some announcements regarding ubb.portal development tonight.

Fantastic!

Thanks to everyone who's working on this

This is very exciting news....

Yipee!
