hey guys,

my phpBB isn't standalone it is actually a module contained within my CMS... does anyone have a link to doucmentation on where an upgraded version of phpBB as a module exists, and if so could help me via this board or my IM w/ problems I could potentially face installing it...?

also I have done alot of custom work to my board itself as far as ranks, avatar images, user graphics, smilies, etc. and would like to know how this update will effect these modifications?

I tried once unsuccessfully to install the new phpBB, and it obliterated my entire board... that was the full install package, but now I understand I will need the module itself for my CMS...

thanks in advance for support on this and best regards...

I appreciate the suggestion, but in my situation w/ so many custom CMS modification that just wouldn't be feasable for a simple phpBB board upgrade...

it would mean re-doing my entire CMS (and probably encountering many many errors)

my phpBB board MUST be upgraded as a module, and although I considered downloading the module from their new versions and trying to incorporate it,
I realize that it would probably conflict with the older CMS tables in mysql...

and then I have more errors...
I can't seem to find any resolution to the problem, and with phpBB being integrated with my site, it allows me to "bridge" other features of the site (the chatroom being an example) so that users aren't required to submit name and pass for every single feature...

I'd appreciate if anyone out there knows of a method of upgrading phpBB to the latest release as a php-nuke 6.5 module without changing your CMS

I'll try and ask a nuke 6.5 specialist about it in another forum as well...

regards,
GF
