So basically I own a site http://filegeek.net (won't be able to access the site yet due to editing everything)

Basically, how can I make it so people can't register on the forums they can register on the site then use their name/pw to login to the forum?

So once they register on the site it automatically makes them a member of the forum?

Thanks guys!

It would require a lot of code changes. I don't know how MyBB works that well, so I couldn't tell you.
Will ask a few friends etc, thanks mate
I would suggest starting to see if the software you have has a mybb bridge. There are bridges listed on this board here:

Other than that... research Google and befriend developers LOL

Here is nice detailed and easy to follow tutorial I found on this forum:
http://community.mybb.com/thread-6190.html

Read it and if it is not what you want you can maybe take something from it to use for your needs. Smile
Hmmmm..not sure..

My random guess is maybe for the registration form use the same DB as your MyBB forum?
Not sure, sorry man. If you ever figure out how to do this, shoot me a pm. I will do some searching and see if I can find a resolution.
