Hi,
I do have some basic PHP understanding but I'm especially strong in programming languages like Java, C#, VB6, C++, ... And I do have a lot of experience with design patterns and best practices, but not in the field of website-development.
In the past I installed a PHPBB forum and build a kind of diagram-system around it. However, because I do not understand the basic design idea behind PHPBB, the code became a mess. Allthough the code worked the way it had to, I could not implement all what I wanted because I did not know enough about the structure behind the forum-code.
I've been looking for advanced documentation or tutorials in understanding php forum sourcecode, but without succes so far. A guide which explains which code is stored where and explains the directory structure would be a great start.
I was hoping maybe somebody in here has encountered something like this before? All links/help/guidelines are welcome. Thank you in advance.
