Now get full control over integrating multiple softwares at the same time, with the new master/slave capabilities. 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.
JFusion proves that Joomla is the future of CMS softwares. Which other CMS software can act as a portal and integrate your users across multiple different platforms? None! Now you have full control over all of your web applications using JFusion.
Currently supported softwares are;
1. vBulletin 3.8.0
2. phpBB 3.0.x
3. MyBB 1.4
4. SMF 1.1.8
5. SMf 2.x
6. Magento
7. Moodle
8. Gallery2
9. dokuwiki
10. Elgg
11. Oscommerce 2.x, 3.x, XT, Zen, Max, SEO
12. e-Front
13. Wordpress
A number of modules are provided with the JFusion package such as;
1. Login Module
2. Latest Activity Module
3. User Activity Module
4. Who is Online Module
Additonal features such as a search plugin (integrates external search i.e. from you integrated software inside your Joomla! search) and a discussion bot(posts news items posted in Joomla! into your integrated forums automatically).
In addition to a user sync feature JFusion now also provides user-group sync using which you are able to link user-groups between softwares (handy if you have membership subscriptions that need to be synchronized between softwares)
Excellent support is available from the JFusion support forum, where our JFusion Support Team is ready to answer any questions you may have. Make sure you also check out our documentation section, as it has many guides on how to make JFusion work for you. With our new version checker and one-click upgrade functions, it has never been easier to keep your JFusion installation up to date.
JFusion is arguably the most actively developed integration software for Joomla. Just imagine what features we will be bringing to you next!
Ok, i've done a quick test with smf and - it works !
The idea is brilliant and if this bridging solution is OK with OSM then this is our baby ;)
Keep goin..

Yes JFusion respects the licenses of softwares. Th FSF has told me that JFusion is compatible with non-GPL licensed softwares such as SMF. Cheers, Marius
We initially wanted to use Joomla a year ago, but our whole site is based around vBulletin 3.6.8 and we have substantial workflow driven by the vB profile fields and registration process. The previous duo-synch bridge was very flaky and left us feeling that we'd get stranded with a split site at the next upgrade of either side.
Fast forward to a couple days ago when I saw that J!1.5 was finally out and started looking at extensions. And I found JFusion, which is so *exactly* what we need it's amazing. Using the vB user tables as the authentication system for Joomla suits us perfectly, and it's a true testament to the greatly improved design of 1.5 that the switch over is as clean and surgical as it is!
We had a couple minor blips installing and getting JFusion running, but as it's still in Alpha, that's pretty freaking incredible. Not only does it WORK, but it works cleanly, and well! And it's still early days. Great extension with great potential and top notch support, the answers to just about everything I needed was in the forum.
JFusion *is* the reason we're back in the Joomla arena. 5 Stars + from us!

Pros: It works! In Alpha, allowing login between test 1.5RC4 with vB 3.68. Considering that this is an alpha I should have given 5 stars.
Cons: None really considering this is an early Alpha of a highly desired integration. It take several attempts to get the configuration just right with VB.
I look forward to the continued development of what has been long sought by people wanting to leverage arguably the best CMS out there with arguably the best forums out there.

Well, I installed this bridge in my Joomla 1.5 and phpBB3.0. I use JFusion login modul.
Now, I can’t synchronisation the users between systems. I read I can it next version. It’s ok.
But… When I swicth off the joomla users plugin in the joomla admin then I can’t login in admin such as administrator.
What I have to give the link in the menü to I login in the phpBB, because now it isn’t operate.
Thank you!

Yes user synchronisation will be part of the next version as stated.
Uninstalling is as easy as unpublishing both the user and authorisation plugin and republishing the Joomla ones. Sounds like you forgot one of them. Now you will need an mySQL editor to republish the Joomla plugins.
