http://www.phpnuke.org is what the frontpage is done in, and its highly modified so i could get it to do what i wanted. I've added three review modules and spent a lot of time modifying them to work (it is only supposed to have 3). I fixed the search (although i made a typo if u read the topic below this
). I've also removed lots of content and moved it around to ensure it is more secure and that it performs as I'd like.
The whole register thing is integrated into the frontpage code, even if i used the forum built in to phpnuke, i still think you'd have to sign up again. I've modified the code so accounts are automatically verified and they can start posting straight away. I've removed access to the e-mail addresses and everything (wouldn't want anyones e-mail address being shown to the public
). So i've done everything I can to make it as secure as possible.
I've thought about how the site works and I suppose it could share a member list, i'd just be weary of doing so.... I wouldn't know how to integrate the memberlist as you purposed without spending a long time going through the code. Then again, I got the local database and apache server for testing the latest builds of the site so I'll look into it
