Portal for IBF?Anyone got experiments?

05-28-2005

I intend to write a PHP portal for IBF(version 2.0.3),but i dont know where to start,someone told me its pretty easy,someone told me i have to read through and clear IBF`s lib to do it.
And,this is than just a portal,its like an CMS ,but it can plug with IBF and use IBf`s database.
-thx for any advices -

Call me an utter moron if you like... but what's IBF? Can you post us a link to its homepage?

Sorry all,IBF=Invision Board Forum,that wasy IPB `s old name.
I want to make a CMS with some small feature plugged in with IPB ,so i think i can call it a portal,so anyonw can give me advices?
Those features which i want my CMS to plug with IPB is user,login and some navigation,news...ect

ask for advice on their forums would be the best bet, I don't know of anyone here who uses IBF for anything.

i have looked into integrating login systems with IPB, i spend about 30 mins looking at their login system, and i think they use a unique kind of hashing on the passwords (not just md5 like phpBB) so if you can emulate their hashing then you can integrate a cms into their database.
