Need Help: User profile interface

Hi,
I have a new website being developed but i want to add a list of our members and thier profiles. The members are on the forum and i want to add a list of the usernames on the main site with a link to all their profiles. Also i want it so that they can edit there own profiles. This would mean thme having to log in and then edit sections of the website under their own usernames. Does anyone have any ides about this?

Re: Need Help: User profile interface

can't you do this through the forum tho? Editing their profiles? So ... why not just link their UserCP?

Yes you can but i wanted to add it onto the main site. I might be able to link to the forum profile page from the main site but it wanted to see how easy or dificult it would be to make a new one.

Re: Need Help: User profile interface

Alright, I recently did something almost similar. Webforumz needed to pull all user profiles from the VB database into our wordpress database. This required some long hours, and hard work. Some fields VB had wordpress did not, also which usergroup went where on wordpress. This was all able to be completed though php. I created a VB plugin that would allow me to set within VB where each usergroup should be placed on Wordpress. Then yet another plugin that allowed me to transfer them to wordpress by entering my username and password for wordpress. Hope this helps. I would say you would need to know enough about PHP to write a plugin for phpbb.

Daniel is not a phpbb expert when it comes to code. Pretty much everything else...yes, just not code.

I bet he won't. He is not a moderator in this area, so he can't!

I didn't know he could only moderate in his own area.
seems obvious now.
super moderators are for everywhere right?

Correct, but this all changes very soon. Just have to wait for the newsletter to be released to find out more about this.
