Having used Fireboard as a solution to integrated forums in Joomla I was more than disappointed. But recently I discovered Agora (www.joomlame.com).

This board is integrated with Joomla and once their new version is released they will have a plugin for CB. I'd like you guys to consider coming up with a plugin for GroupJive to work with Agora.

I was disappointed to see you've decided to integrate with Fireboard. Fireboard is the reason I stopped using GroupJive.

Unfortunately, not all components can be integrated with GJ right now. Fireboard was and still is the top forum download on Joomla Extensensions.

This doesn't mean Agora won't be integrated at some point, but majority usually rules priority of new integrations. The only other major factor is the ease or difficulty of integrating the extension. Since GJ is built on CB 1.2 framework, it will make integration easier when Agora releases their CB 1.2 plugin.

Moving this thread to the Feature and Integration Requests.

Thanks for your response. I went to Joomla Extensions to see where Agora ranked vs. Fireboard, but Fireboard is not even listed under the Forum sub-category.

At the time being, it may not be the wisest thing to integrate with Agora since they are close to finishing their newest version of Agora (Olympus).

Well I also hope for a plugin for phpBB 3+.

phpbb is really a great forum also run on Joomla org.

I am new to groupjive but am also wondering if PhpBB3 can be integrated?

Alot of people are now moving to this option I believe due to the fact fireboard development has been rocky and the need to run larger forums without the load fireboard creates. There are even now better efforts to integrate phpbb3 template wise with rockethemes creating a new template club for it to match their joomla templates.

Maybe its possible to use the Jfusion plugin? http://www.jfusion.org
