Integrating PHP bb forum into already created log-in register system

Hey guys,

 

i have already created a log-in / register system for my website, and i am currently trying to integrate a web forum from phpBB3.

 

i have installed the forum correctly and it is up and running just fine.

 

what i am having an issue with is merging the register systems of both and matching the queries of each databases username and password.and am somewhat lost in watching a tutorial.

 

i have my login logic:

 

<?include('include/init.php'); // DB CONNECTION AND SESSION START .. etc


// Redirects user if already logged in

logged_in_redirect();


if (empty($_POST) === false) {

$username = $_POST['loginname'];
$password = $_POST['loginpass'];


if (empty($username) === true || empty($password) === true) {
$errors[] = 'You need to enter a valid Username & Password';
} else if (user_exists($username) === false ) { 
$errors[] = ' We could not find this user info in our userbase.';
} else if (user_active($username) === false ) {
$errors[] = 'This account still needs to be activated or is no longer active';
} else {
$login = login($username, $password);
if ($login === false) {
$errors[] = ' The Username / Password combination you entered is incorrect.';
} else {
$_SESSION['user_id'] = $login;
header("Location: index.php");
exit();
} 
}
}else {
$errors[] = 'No Data Retrieved';
}
if (empty($errors) === false) { ?>


<div style=" width: auto; height: 300px; margin: auto; padding: none; text-align: center; position: relative; top: 300px;">


<h5> We tried our best to log you in, but..


<? echo output_errors($errors); }?> 


Click <a href="redirect.php">Here</a> to go back to the login.
</h5>
</div>

 and my sessions logic in the INIT.php:

 

 

ob_start();
if(!isset($_SESSION))
{
session_start();
}


 error_reporting(E_ALL| E_STRICT);
 ini_set('display_errors', 1);


require_once ('core/database/dbconnect.php');
require_once ('core/functions/general.php');
require_once ('core/functions/users.php');
require_once 'core/queries/dbqueries.php';
require_once ('forums/phpBB3/includes/functions.php');


$current_file = explode('/', $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']);
$current_file = end($current_file);


if (logged_in() === true) {
$session_user_id = $_SESSION['user_id'];
$user_data = user_data($session_user_id, 'user_id', 'username', 'password', 'email', 'gender', 'country', 'month' ,'date' , 'year', 'pass_recover', 'type');
if (user_active($user_data['username']) === false){
session_destroy();
header('Location: index.php');
exit();
}
if($current_file !== 'change_password.php' && $current_file !== 'logout.php' && $user_data['pass_recover'] == 1 ){
header('Location: change_password.php?force');
exit();
}
}


$errors = array();
?>

 

 

now i have uploaded my phpbb3 file and set them into a directory called forums and in this directory come a bunch of predefined functions.

 

so i wanted to start to add the conditionals to check to see if it was finding the other forums register info

 

i added this:

} else {
$login = login($username, $password);
if ($login === false) {
$errors[] = ' The Username / Password combination you entered is incorrect.';
}

else 


{$find = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM phpbb_users WHERE username = '$username' "); ----|
if(mysql_num_rows($find)==0) {                                                       |
echo "ERROR";                                                                        |
} else {                                                                             |
while ($find_row = mysql_fetch_assoc($find)){                                        | // THIS WHOLE SNIPPET HAS BEEN ADDED 
$password_hash = $find_row['user_password'];                                         |
}                                                                                    |
echo $password_hash;                                                                 |
}                                                                                ----|


$_SESSION['user_id'] = $login;
header("Location: index.php");
exit();
} 
}

i had to go into the main functions of the and comment out this line of code so my page would show

 

/*if (!defined('IN_PHPBB'))
{
exit;
}
*/ 

nothing seems to output when i add these conditionals, and i at this point i am just lost as to how to get this task done.

 

i can still login with a user who registered using the site / but typing in the username of a user who has registered via forum is not outputting anything.

 

 

any suggestion or ideas ?

 

i really would appreciate any help on this
