connecting two softwares

[Kyler]

I have a custom chat service with phpb3. Is there anyway to add the link to the navigation bar? They would be logging in via the old forum of course(double logins) but I am not too pleased with current xf addons.

You can definitely hook in to other software. I've done several different integrations where I've tied the other software into the XenForo userbase.

There is some nice info here: http://xenforo.com/community/threads/how-to-create-a-bridge.28515/#post-331608
