you can do that in few simple steps:
1. download any forum software
2. install it in the "/forums/" folder
3. link your site with that forum by inserting a link in the (for example) main navigation's template - block_mainnav.html:
add
Code:
<li><a href="/forum/">Forum</a></li>
above the last </ul>

 Cheesy i meant   that users that have an account on the proarcadescript platform to have acces in the forum, with users in forum from the proarcadescript platform,  a relationship between the forum and the script
not a simple link !

ah... I see now Smiley
That's a bit harder than just installing a forum, but if you are familiar with php and mysql, you'll be able to make such intergation. In short, a custom mod for your forum is required. It should add a new record to the "users" table in the PAS database every time a new user is registered on the forum. And the last (easier) step - you should point the "register now" link in the PAS theme to the forum's registration page (so the users will actually register on the forum only, and your backend will share that registration to the whole site).
