how to compatible SMF to my site...

[turaper]

Hey dudes, i already have a site where you can play a certain game.

You need register and you have some features in the game. The game have the own CMS.
I want to install forum but with some features:

a) When you register new account, you register new account at the forum too.
b) When you login to my game, you can post at the forum with the same user, not need login at the forum again. (Just one login to the forum and my game).
c) Show my forum, but for the users i only want show the forums ans subforums, i mean, without "Home, Help, Search, Users, Profile, Messages"... (only for administrators and mods).
So with the last point (c) you only can create post and reply the posts, and this if can do like a iframe forum, or when you see the forum but on the head section, are my header game cms.


I dont know if i expressed correctly :/

SMF can certainly do what you want but I'm concerned how much effort it would be, given how it's really not designed to work how you want it to.

If you want to put the game in a CMS page and have comments, I'm pretty sure you'd be better off with something like Disqus rather than the amount of hacking together that SMF would actually require for that.

I run SMF behind a WordPress site. My server manager wrote a script to synchronise the databases so that anyone registering with WP (using the wp-members plugin) is automatically registered with SMF with the same username. You can't port the passwords though as they are encrypted.
He also transferred the existing 340+ users to SMF in one go.

All I had to do was send a newsletter to the entire user base welcoming them to their new forum and advising them of the fact that their username was the same.

This is as automated as I want to get as I like to stay in control of these smaller sites!
