Adding a blog to a phpbb forum

[dragz]

I want to do a blog for my site, Is there a simple way for doing that? (same users for blog and forum)

well here is what i'm doing. i have my forum (http://forum.gnncentral.com) and my blog/homepage (http://gnncentral.com) and i'm connecting the users via a phpBB mod that connects then called WP-United (it only works for Wordpress). Is that what you're looking for? It allows easy transfer of users and when you log into one, you log into both. Hope this helps. The mod isnt installed on my forum yet but you get an idea. Good Luck

That is probably the best way to add a blog because wordpress would be more versatile than a phpBB mod.

Their is a user blog MOD but it doesn't work, personally I'd rather use wordpress and I think wordpress also looks more professional.

Sorry guyz, Didn't notice that, I want something really really simple, wp united is down, there is no place where I can get active help, User blog mod is for users, I guess NV newspage will suit me, -8)-

wordpress is very simple and i just got on wp united. http://www.wp-united.com/. but if you just want NV newspage you can do that lol i've never used it before though. it just depends what you want your forum to look like. and if you need help just go the the phpBB website. there is help for wp united and everything else in the community section 🙂
