Agreed, no one here should recommend using both at the same time. W3all and Bridge Pro seem to serve the same purpose, to integrate phpBB forums with Wordpress. Like other site plugins, you have choices to make to accomplish your goals.

My advice, try them both separately and see which you like best or accomplishes what you need.

Good day!

But W3all does not bridge the users.

I want the user to sign up with phpbb and also create a wordpress user account.

Bridge Pro DD does this but I was hoping W3all can achieve this also.

1. I need the forum i frame on my website and 2. i need the phpbb users and wordpress users bridged

what would you advise? many thanks

Hello all! Yes right suggestion! Choose one, not use both! It could also lead to have some possible problem for yours installations.
Do not use together things that are doing the same tasks.
I do not know Bridge PRO dd, but if it can integrate adding concurrently an user in WP, when he register in phpBB than should be not only a pure WP plugin. It should for sure go to add code into both, a mod maybe in phpBB, and a plugin in WP.

On WP_w3all, pure WP plugin, an user is added into phpBB at same time if user register in WP side. User is added in WP, if registration is done in phpBB side, when this user come as logged in phpBB, to visits WP side, or when login first time WP.

Said that, this has been explained in this post, how will be resolved on next version this situation:
When user register in phpBB, can be added/registered at same time into WordPress?
the post not mention that the same trick can be also applied to get user's profile fields updates at same time also when done in phpBB.
