External php intergration

[Steve Williams]

Hi all
I am looking to switch my site which is running phpbb over to xenforo.
My question is:
i have a secondary site that is integrated into the login / registration system of phpbb which allows members with a certain membership status can gain access.

What i would like to know how much data can i pull on a external site on same domain.
atm with phpbb.

thanks

XenForo has an add-on system allowing you to extend most of the code.

There is also a template tag which allows you to call PHP code from templates.

In both cases some experience with XF is useful though you can ask questions in the development discussions forum to get you up to speed.

XenForo does not offer an API or means of integrating logins with another part of your website. You'll need to do significant programming to do what you're talking about. I like XenForo a lot, but this is a surprising gap in the functionality of the software.

XenForo Login API for Third-Party Scripts
XF 1.2 - Login, Logout, Register from outside XenForo
