Just released wp_w3all WordPress phpBB integration version 1.0.7.
Please report if any problem, while all seem to work well after update here at axew3.com.
That's nice.

1.0.7 fix several minor bugs, add correct links for login widget if in iframe mode.
Files templates about iframe links for widget login have been separated for a more easy and clear use or code updates. Look inside plugins/wp-w3all-phpbb-integration/views/inc

Prepared for 1.0.8 where iframe became responsive with javascript in few steps if needed.
Searching for the final way that will be inserted into wp_w3all, as it need to leave wp_w3all light and easy as is.

More or less ready the code about avatars option. The code is compact and executed fast.

Hi Axew3,
Thanks allot for this great plugin. My website (www.aquaponic.be) used wp-united for many years until 2 weeks ago when something went wrong and my forum was down for a couple of days.
After installing your plugin, I (temporarely) decided to open the forum in a separate page.
Now I tried the ifame function, but is does not work.
I think you missed a <div> tag or something, as it messes up my page.
I use WP442 with the Suffusion theme.
The site has two side bars: left and right (which is a bit old fashion but the only way to show the huge amount of links & info on the site)
As you can see on www.aquaponic.be/forums , the side bars are now below the content.

This is what I did:
- created blank forums page
- added 'forums' to the setup page field
- clicked 'create template' button.

Going back to the forums page, I cannot select (nor see) the template name in the templlate selector, so I use 'default'.

An integration in the WP standard template, even using iFrame, would be great, aldough I think it's not so easy to modify css to get rid of the title, icon and borders.
By the way: the forum itself can be seen on www.aquaponic.be/forum (which is the folder name of the phpBB files)

Looking forward to a solution,
Val

here my reply below: about the DIV: it seem to me that your page template that should contain the iframe, is wrong somewhere. You should have fail to copy/paste your code. Post your original template theme page code (page.php) i will answer with the correct code you need.
while about template page:
The template file name to search for, inside the active theme, template directory, can be: page-forum.php or page-board.php, and so on, depending on how is set this value.
The iframe mode should not have problems about html tags not well closed.
About iframe implementation: Instead of many complications on plugin code, with just 4 instructions well explained, clear and short we can achieve a very strong and effective responsive iframe result. Easy to be modified, applied on different scenario, and so on.
ABout your template follow read below...

The created page on active template theme folder can be page-forum.php or page-community.php (for example) not default.
The creation page procedure had problems until yesterday on 1.0.6 if page was not named forum, now it has been fixed on 1.0.7.
Please update wp_w3all to 1.0.7 and repeat the page creation process now. So we will think to add the responsive iframe.
You need to create a blank page on wordpress admin, named/TITLED as you have named the created page.

Ps as your forum is on a folder named forums, children of the folder where WP is installed, DO not create forums as wp embed template page, because that link will point to a folder that really exist and not to a custom created WP page! It is normal behavior of Wp.
