Hey, I was wondering a few things.

I am putting together a Gaming Teams Site and they want something similar to this

http://www.complexityclan.com

I know they use PHPbb for the forums and some mods,

can anyone tell me what I should be looking for in tutorials to make a CMS that will allow the team to post matches and have it appear in the top section "Recent Matches", same thing with the demos, and upcoming matches. Is that whole site just based off mods for phpbb? Or is it also integrated with a custom CMS? I know the news is posted through the forums thats easy to do. I am trying to put together something similar to this, where people can make user profiles, post files to download, post match results, etc. Thanks for the help in advance guys.




edit: oops this is placed in the wrong forum, should be under PHP help I am sorry.

id think the best way to go is mod the forums with things like attatchment mods and download mods. and integrate them into the main site pages. some of it would need to be custom coded though.

hot scripts might have some useful stuff on there, but the demos section on that website you linked seems to be seperate to the forums as such. (maybe not for permisions but it seems to be a different script completely)

In the php section on p2l there is a sub section for forums and stuff. might be something in there to help

Thanks for the input so far, anyone else?

ive just thought, if youre using a phpbb forum and want to integrate it. you might wanna try here, they usually have some useful stuff for phpbb. i used them alot at one point. gl!

Thanks man I appreciate your input.


But as far as the posting of demos and matches, any idea what I should be searching for in PHP?

if youre wanting to post them seperate. then id suggest the CMS/membership type tutorials/scripts. just like a news one, only with downloads instead. and demos. just something with an ID, catagory and something like hits or times downloaded. something in here might help.

its what id do personally, but ive not been coding php very long. someone else might have a better idea on it. but thats what i would do
