Phpbb primetime allows you to create a content management system around your phpbb3 installation. It comes packaged with a couple of core modules, most of which were activated at installation. The idea is to provide you with a system that gives you the flexibility to creaate, manage, and display your content the way you like.

[b]Content Types[/b]

The content module is a versatile article system for phpbb primetime that allows you to create different 'content types' e.g. News, Articles, or whatever. It is fully customizable from the administrative control panel where you can specify input fields for each content type (e.g. category, summary, content) and who can enter values for these fields (moderators or registered users). You can also choose to set permissions for each content type thereby effectively controlling who can view or post in each content type.

[b]Add Pages[/b]

The pages module allows you to create custom pages for your website. You can create a simple page from acp that is integrated into primetime's menu system, or you can create a really customized page making use of special bbcodes to control layout, blocks, tabs, accordions, rss feeds, and slideshows. With this module, you can pull data from any forum topic or any existing primetime block and display it where you choose. You can also make use of templates for effective layout design. Like the content module, you can make use of phpbb3's permission system to limit access to your custom pages.

[b]Categories[/b]

The Categories module allows you to create hierarchical categories for your contents. This module is used by other modules to categorize content.


This is only a few modules, and there is more to come. Feel free to play around with the system and don't forget to provide feedback of your experiences.
