 JFusion needs YOUR help to grow into a beta software release with all the functions you could wish for! Please help by donating at:

JFusion is a free GPL plugin for the award winning Content Management System (CMS) Joomla. JFusion provides universal user integration, by extending the Joomla 1.5 user authentication framework without any core hacks.
JFusion does not support every software out-of-the-box, but is designed for people to easily write a plugin to create a bridge, without re-inventing the wheel. Currently supported softwares are: vBulletin 3.6.8, phpBB3, MyBB, IPB, SMF 1.1.4 and punBB.
Automatic dual login is now supported for vbulletin, myBB, IPB, magento and phpBB3!!!
NO support for Joomla 1.0.x, as this plugin is dependent on the beautiful Joomla 1.5 framework.
A "latest post" type forum activity module is also included this release.
JFusion is an alpha release product, released for testing purposes and should not be used on production sites.
JFusion only has one-way sync capabilities at this stage, which makes it unsuitable for people with a large Joomla user database wanting to extend their Joomla installation with a forum (two way user-sync will be added soon!)"

| Pinch me, I must be dreaming! by jmarella, July 2, 2008 |

Several months ago I struggled with integrating a forum into Joomla with a bridge. I spent hours and hours and finally weeks trying to achieve a seamless integration but it never came out right and one thing or another was always wrong or didn't work the way it should have. In disgust, I gave up vowed to never bother integrating a forum again.
Then along came JFusion! It took me all of about an hour to install and make the integration functional, and the results are absolutely amazing! Perfect! And I didn't bang my head on my desk at all today while doing it. I can't say enough great things about JFusion and the folks behind it. |

This is a great addition to Joomla and would progress much faster with your donation. Take a look at his "Chip-In" donation link on his home page. I chipped in. So should you.

| Jfusion is the future by tempjoes, May 27, 2008 |

Man this plug-in for joomla 1.5 is the big future already, the whole plug in works, but however when i get into the cp for the plugin (component panel) it says that joomla auth must be unpublished but that has no effect with the plug-ins popularity.
JFUSION is the future of joomla 1.5(its almost better than joomla itself!) |
| Really great idea by dubcat, May 20, 2008 |

this is the firts the best idea how to create an universal bridge. It is really great realised. I hope that also the SMF 2.0 will be supported soon |
| EXCELLENT AND EASY by FidelGonzales, April 30, 2008 |

I was debating as to whether I was going to create my personal website using Joomla 1.0 or Joomla 1.5. While I new all the tricks to Joomla 1.0, integrating Simple Machines Forum is increasingly problematic with the death of the various bridge components and increased issues with the latest Joomla 1.0 versions. After some thought and after some testing last year in the early beta versions, I opted to load my first Joomla 1.5 stable install and immediately followed up with JFusion, connecting it to an existing SMF 2.0 Beta 3 Public forum I use primarily as a personal and business notepad as well as a client discussion and support forum. The complete operation took little more than 15 minutes.
While it was once easy to mass produce Joomla 1.0 clones loaded with content, it was always a great pain to integrate and hack the code to forum a bridge between Joomla 1.0 and SMF. With Joomla 1.5 and JFusion, the operation is very easy, requires no hacking of code and includes ample configuration options that were easy to navigate through with the integrated help notes.
Now, I'm that much closer to being hooked on Joomla 1.5. THANKS! |

I tried 1.0.6b to integrate phpBB3 and I can't believe how easy it was to set up. It works perfectly as is, I look forward to seeing a final release, that's when I'll be setting up my forum. Thanks for all your work. |
| some more modules? :P by m4x, April 12, 2008 |
|
Hi, good plugin. I am using it for few weeks.
But I was wondering, could you create some new modules? Like the last-registered-users, last visitors... using avatars or personal photos (let admin to choose) of the profiles from the forum?
IPB has superb profiles and it would be cool, when an integration is done, to view on joomla site the last users, birthdays and stuff. :)
thx a lot for your work. |
| A bridge that works by Abishai, April 12, 2008 |

Wow ... nice component and it actually works even when it's not on final release yet. They also got nice modules to really help integrate your joomla site to your forum. JFusion Activity module shows latest posts from forum, JFusion login module has direct link to your forum pm's and new forum posts and shows your avatar from your forum. Only con right now which is a minor one is you can only login from your joomla page in order to simultaneously login to your forum.
Hopefully dual login/logout feature from either joomla or forum will be available soon. Can't wait to see the final release.
Joomla 1.5.2
phpbb3.0.1
JFusion 1.06a
Also, I ocnverted my Fireboard 1.0.3 to SMF then to phpbb3. Only thing lost from conversion was Avatars and broken links to uploaded pictures. |

Hello!
I was a bit worried about installing JFusion only cause it is still in Alpha, but after reading the comments and so on decided to give it a try. After a simple install and quick configuration, phpBB was integrated into my Joomla web site. It took only about 5 minutes to have everything running.
JFusion is AWESOME!
Runing phpBB 3.1 and Joomla 1.5.2
JFusion 1.0.6a alpha
User Sync works 100%
JFusion Latest module 100%
JFusion Login Module 100%
As for now, I did not find any bug, or gotten any errors anywhere. |
| Best phpbb3-joomla integration by monathematrix, April 7, 2008 |
|
Truly it is Ideal for message boards that want a portal.
I have connected my phpbb3 (with more than 1k users) to newly re-design Joomla site. And it works just fantastic for me.
It works without any core hacks, it is important for me, But I am still looking forward for such a Jfusion version which will not make any permanent changes to my Joomla user table.
We also expect to get two-way user sync functionality in coming versions.
Any way! It is very nice utility to integrate a high powered, fully scalable, and highly customizable bulletin board package Phpbb with leading CMS Joomla.
Full marks to you. You deserve it.

This is a great extension that is working well on my new site. The first stable release should be out shortly and the developers and support team are fully engaged.
Being new to Joomla! and the multitude of extensions available, it is refreshing to see this level of interest and support in a Joomla! extension by the people offering it!! Thanks guys! |
| Works great by colinives, March 31, 2008 |

I have installed JFusion with a very established PHPBB3 forum - it worked great. Simple to install and to get working it has all the basic features I need. I'm not after bi-directional account registration as i only approve new users via the forum.
I had a couple a small teething problems and found the support via their forums/team excellent.
Well done! |
| Misleading Description:JFusion -> Universal User Integration by igirisjin, March 27, 2008 |

The description here on the Joomla site is very different from the developers site. Great extension but it does the opposite of it says it will do here.
"Universal User Integration" ... sorry no! Its a one way integration from other software. Forget integrating your Joomla users in a message board. Joomla accounts are totally useless/meaningless at this stage in its development.
Ideal for message boards that want a portal - useless for joomla users that want a message board.
This text from the developers site should be on the Joomla extension description - I cannot believe it was left out!
What does JFusion do?
* JFusion will force Joomla to use an exteral software as the "master" of usermanagement."
"What can JFusion not do at this stage?
* JFusion does not have user-sync at ths stage, which makes it unsuitable for people with a large Joomla user database, to extend their Joomla installation with a forum (user-sync will be added at a later date)"
This is pretty explicit ... why isnt it written here. It means I gota move all joomla accounts in to a message board.
AD Owner's reply: "Universal" means that with the JFusion framework you can integrate many different softwares with Joomla.
JFusion 1.0.5e has one-way sync capabilities to sync users from the forum into Joomla. We hope to have two-way sync capabilities up and running soon.
Thank you for pointing out that some extra information would be useful on this extension's description. I have added this. Marius |
