Display phpBB most recent posts in Wordpress.

The purpose of this project is to create a WordPress Plugin that will integrate recent forum posts from a phpBB site, and display them neatly on the front page of a WordPress based site. We are interested in getting the new topics and or comments from the phpBB site in order to attract attention from the WordPress site to the forums by peaking the interest of our clients and members. Create a plugin that reads the phpBB database, and has a few options in the Wordpress control panel. READ THE ATTACHED RFP BEFORE BIDDING. ## Deliverables The plugin should work in conjunction with the current theme with only minor modifications. On templates that have the plugin function code in them, the page must query the phpBB database to find the most recent posts that have been submitted. Then, for each post returned, find the parent topic in which that comment was posted. Then, the topic and the comment should be prepared for display on the page. Lastly, the topics and comments are displayed in the right hand column of the website as an unordered list, which can be easily styled with CSS to match the layout of the existing site. ## Administration Panel The plugin must have an options control panel where we can set: 1. The number of recent posts to display. 2. What to display: (Comment, Topic, or both) The options control panel must be a sub-menu called **Recent Posts** in the dashboard under an administration menu called: "**Relationship HQ**." (See: Figure 1: Administration Panel on page 5). ## CSS CSS must be self-contained in a style sheet that accompanies the plugin, but is enabled and disabled along with the plugin.
