OK, I identified the reson why it is not updating the "newest registered user" information at the bottom of the board.
It has to do with the categories hierarchy mod I have installed on phpbb to get the subforums feature.
This mod modifies the registration procedure and adds a "update last user" function.
I am puzzled... I don't understand where this information is stored.
I tried to integrate the strings of code in phpbbconncector.php, but failed miserably and still encounter the problem... when I register a new user from joomla it is perfectly added to phpbb's DB but the numer of users and the newest registered are not showed on the board.
I will post here the two phpbb files (one at a time) I believe are involved.
You will easily find the code I am referring to because it is commented, but I will post it here anyways so that everybody can see it.
Hoping that Greg's got some time to look into this mess.
Thanx!
