Anyone know a Forum / Message Board software that can do this?

I am looking for a forum that I can put in a member's area that uses the same login as the member's username. Most forums require a person to register and login independently. I am looking for one that automatically knows the username of the person and applies it to the forum.

Geez, I hope I explained that well enough.

YARGH! You could modify the script to pull the username pass from your member mysql db. Should be easy enough.

I'm not familiar with this. And, the site in question is using a .htpasswd file for it's members.

Yeah thats not hard to do at all.

We have forums on 25 paysites right now each of them pulling usernames from the main sites members htpassword file and using the same color scheme as the sites members areas whilst sharing all of the same posts

Our existing member base is loving the forum, because they seem to think that each site has 100's of members instead of realizing they are posting on one central forum that is shared between 25 paysites

Still, retention levels are good because of the interactivity the forums added, we just have to make sure they dont realize that they can get access to the community forums for free on a non-paysite domain

Regards,

Lee

I've done it several times. I used mysql to do the authentication instead of storing the user info in .htpasswd files. You still use .htaccess but you're using a PHP script to do the work for you.

Google

.htaccess php_value auto_prepend_file

If you want to try to give it a shot yourself.

If this is for a member's area, you may want to think about protecting your userbase. If a password trader comes into your forum and the usernames displayed are your actual member's names... they only need to crack your passwords in order to gain access to your member's area & member's personal info, if you make the users register a new username, or even allow guests to post and put the entire forum behind a password that is given to member's only... You will help protect your sensitive data and possibly keep unwanted users out.

Just my 2cs.

This will already be in a member's only area. If a person is seeing the forum, then they will already be in the member's area.

Just for the record, this is not for me, but for a friend. He already has a forum that uses this setup, but it's outdated. He wants a newer one, like phpBB or vBulletin.
