Is this something you'd done before or would consider? Or, have you got any suggestions of anything you've done similarly for other people?
It's not -HIGH- priority for me. Its just been something buzzing at the back of my mind, thats all
Yea that is possibile by modifying the login script to create new entry in DB that is used by phpBB. However for already logged in users, they would need to login again in order for user to be added to phpBB, or to simply register manually. We didn't do exactly this in the past, but we had some similar tasks.
