I apologize if this is already addressed within the forums.
I have integrated phpBB3 into a Ruby on Rails site. The non-phpBB3 part of the website allows users to write their own movie reviews. The data is written to a table in the same database used by phpBB3 but not to a "phpbb_" table. I would like to tie user reviews with their profile in phpBB3. Essentially, I would like for a list of reviews to appear in the user profile. Each review that appears in the list would link back to the review within the site.
I am new to phpBB and I'm not sure how complex such a mod would be. Additionally, I am not a PHP developer. I come from a .NET/Ruby on Rails background. I am prepared to jump into learning PHP and the phpBB framework but I would like some guidance on how best to tackle this task.
