Hi,

We have our forums running on phpbb. I didn't find any atom feed mod for phpbb ?
Does anyone know how to achieve this ?
Another software we have is for FAQs. We would like to have this integrated as well.
Can someone provide any URLs or resources to achieve this ?

There's a link to one that seems highly recommended here: http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=254606

It doesn't do search strings, but it should be fairly simple to add it. Do you have a test phpbb forum somewhere where we could try it out?

@hildy phpBB is free software, you could set up a copy on a dev box in a couple minutes and just emulate my vBulletin F&R adapter. Hopefully the phpBB code is a little more organized than vBulletin though -- I wasn't able to use their API for searching because it was all written inline procedurally (not OOP).

@axlp You mentioned phpBB, what's the name of the FAQ software?
