    Ok,I have a question for a Guru.

    I am helping start a MyBB forum with Wordpress as a Portal of sorts.

    How would I make it so that it pulls all user information from the forums database, like avatars, etc.

    I assume it would be some edit telling it too look at table X.

    And then, for full integration, remap the register button, etc...

    Any ideas?

    I remember there is a plugin (for MyBB and WP, you have to install them on both) that will post a thread on your MyBB the WP post you made. But after that, I'm not sure if you can use MyBB functions to pull data out of the DB with their variables if you're not IN_MYBB (maybe you could define that to make it work, but I don't know)

    Oh, I saw that topic and install that. I did not like that you had to manually link th accounts together or that you had to register on both ends.
    I registration for both is what I was hoping to achieve.
