 * We are evaluating a few CMS options and I was hoping to get some help on validating
   if WordPress can achieve what we are looking for. We are looking to have the 
   following functionality:
 * **1.** One WordPress instillation that links to several phpBB forums. So when
   a user registers at the main WordPress website, they have instant access to all
   phpBB installations.
 * a. I have seen a few plugins and the ratings all over the board. I am also not
   sure if one of them can handle this scenario.
    b. I also want to make sure when
   we add new phpBB forums, all of the main websites resisted users have instant
   access to the new forum.
 * **2.** We would also like any user that signs up for a class to have access to
   a special locked section of the related phpBB forum.
 * a. I know this can be completed manually, but we are hoping if we can assign 
   a user to a permissions group after they sign up for a class, that permissions
   will update in phpBB. Allowing that user to have instant access to a few locked
   threads in the related phpBB forum.
 * Any assistance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

 * Do a search for “wordpress phpbb bridge” and you’ll get a lot of links, answers
   and solutions.
 * One thing that I did see in most is that they are made to connect one of each
   site, so one WordPress installation connecting to one PHPBB installation. You
   can always study how they’ve done it and modify the code to allow you to connect
   to multiple PHPBB’s.

 * Thank you. I am aware of the apps that are out there. I am trying to find someone
   who has tired this approach. Most of the apps mention 1 website to 1 phpBB board.
 * I was hoping to get some feedback from someone who has successful set this up.
