I've create a portal, now I would like to use the DNN forum module in my
website (without use/install DNN) ... is it possible?? How Can I do this??

Thanks

Create forum tables, include forum part in your project, try to run it.

How Can I "include forum part in your project"??

I want to copy only the forum files and not all DNN project

Thanks

It might be possible but the way DNN modules are irrevocably bound to
dependencies in other parts of DNN, I wouldn't advise trying it.
Just find some forum software you like (non-DNN) and use that.

Luca, you have to download that module and check if it is really
required to have DNN or not.

As Peter said, the most of DNN modules are bound to dependencies in
other parts of DNN. For the most part, it is view-edit permissions for
the modules that have to be embedded to the page. Because you don't
want to install DNN you should modify permissions part (if it's
necessary).

See Peter's reply - dump DNN as soon as you possibly can...

True, I've even looked at the C# port of DNN (which runs a lot faster BTW)
and it has the same issues - you cannot "pull out" modules to use standalone
without going through major chicken salad surgery.

I don't believe it is...

Do yourself a *huge* favour and forget DNN...

If you can identify the forum's DNN dependencies, and place the assemblies
in the /bin directory of your app, that shouldn't be much of a problem.

The thing is, that there's tons of forum apps which are easier to
install/configure and which work standalone without further ado.
