joomla module development

Post by hybiepoo »

I have downloaded the p8pbb mod_login files, which adds the avatar to the login module.

I would like to develop this further though. Does the bridge allow us to query the phpBB database?
I'd like to add things like the users rank, rank image etc

Yes, sure:

Code: Select all

require_once(JPATH_SITE.'/components/com_p8pbb/helper.php');

$fdb = p8pbbHelper::getForumDB(); 

$query = 'SELECT * FROM #__users';
$fdb->setQuery($query, 0, 50);
$rows = $fdb->loadObjectList();

p8pbbHelper::_restoreDB('j');
