Just throwing out a teaser, an Invision Power Board integration module will be released soon. Just getting the "underwritting" working correct. I'd like to get a feel for interest as I'd like to get some voluteers for bug-shaking and watch the queue for it closley.
The module is more than meets the eye. It's a faily complex syncing module that also show's the Invision system "inline" as content when you're viewing the forum (as an iFrame). However, Drupal is "King". All authentication is handled by drupal. Invision looks to drupal for authentication, and all registration is handled through Drupal.
The module uses cURL, and cURL must be enabled.
The module also handles the following situations.
Problem Sets:
Problem: User is in the Invision system, but not the drupal system.
Solution: When the user try's to login into the Invision system, they are redirected to the drupal /user page for login.
Problem: User is in the Drupal system but not the Invision system.
Solution: The module comes with a setting called "auth-regsiter" that you can check. When checked, if a user is authenticated in the D (Drupal) system, but not IV (Invision), they are automatically registered into the IV system, and the D system continues on un-beknown to the user.
Problem:User is in neither system
