Wordpress and Forum Help

Post by GameNewsies »

we're looking to trying to create a forum on my website (http://www.Gamenewsies.com). We currently use WordPress and have tried integrating Phpbb but it ended pretty bad since we did not fully get it to work right. Does anyone want to help on this issue ? Is there any options or something to guide us in the right direction ?

Willing to give access to Control panel to fix this .

It's been a while since I've messed with the PHPBB integration and WP but last time I tried it failed, horribly. My suggestion would be to just install PHPBB to a sub-directory of your WP site and use it like that.

Do as Kraze suggested. Just install it in a sub-directory of your site and take the images and colors from the wordpress theme and modify the phpbb files. So it matches up with your homepage.
