Hello I have a question. It might be sound ridiculous, but let me explain what I want to accomplish. Right now I try to embed open source forum to by site and I want to leave forum and my site databases split. When my site users are logging in I want them also automatically be logged in to the forum system. For that I want to login wit...
I really want to know popular opinion on controversial programming topics. Questions like: Why do some people prefer vi over emacs (or vice versa)? Is Java faster than C++? Is Intel faster than AMD? It seems SO discourages such conversions because of potential flamewars. So where do people go to discuss such matters? I'm especially...

Hi, I am not very strong in "legal or not" questions so I hope someone can help me here. How legal is the following: I create my forum, then choose a random existing forum (not mine), take a user from that forum (username, avatar, etc) and create an identical account at my forum. I know that this is extremely hard to prove and everythin...

I have a rather complete application based on sinatra. I feel in need for an easy to integrate forum module (code, extension, etc.). Running a parallel Rails application is not an option on my tiny VPS plan (I even use redis to keep a small footprint). A sinatra based forum would be great news. Thanks ...
I am rephrasing my earlier question. This time any answer about a non-rails ruby forum application, be it sinatra based or not, will be fine. Thanks ...
I'm struggling with a conceptual question. When you have a forum with thousands of posts and/or threads, how do you retrieve all those posts to be displayed on your site? Do you connect to your database every time someone visits your page then capture every post in an array and display it? Surely this seems like it would be very taxing o...
Hi guys, I've built a simple membership based website for a client - the client would like a forum integrated such that whenever a user registers on the membership site a corresponding account is created on the forums end as well etc. I checked out simple machines forums and phpBB - however I'mn not sure as to how to get this implemente...
For this website we're working on, we're trying to get the most popular topics (based on how many posts have been made in them within the last 24 hours). We have a medium to large based forum, and the current MySQL query looks like this: SELECT `forums_topics`.`id`,`forums_topics`.`name`, ( SELECT COUNT(`id`) FROM `...
Hello, I'm trying to learn to use PHP with an object oriented scheme. I think I understand the concept but I need real example, a forum exactly (the closest to what I want to do). I know PhpBB but it's maybe too complicated to fully understand it so I'm looking for something simpler but still in object oriented. Do you know any ? Tha...

I'm a second Admin on a forum and have noticed that the number of View of threads varies from thread to thread quite a bit. I was told that a lot of those Views are from the many Bots that come in and go thru the forums. My question is, do they up the View number every time they come in a check a new post in a thread, or are all of tho...
During a conversation about a site (with a forum) I am about to launch, a friend raised the point that Facebook and its ways have more or less killed off forums. Probably "killed off" is too harsh in explaining it, but he did have a point. I have heard many people saying that they would rather go to a Facebook page than visit a differen...
Ok let me see if I can explain this easily I have a forum that was hosted as my home page on www.mysite.com respectively. It's well indexed and I'd hate to lose any ranking. Today I moved the entire root site from the root domain to www.mysite.com/forum to make way for our new CMS system which will now be the home page. (This is to he...
