I've been searching for this and can't quite get to what I need.
Is anyone aware of an open source forum script written in PHP that utilizes OOP concepts?
So has to be
Forum
OOP
Open source
I will accept answers for anything else, including tutorials, videos, etc. since I get to still see the source and learn from it.
I have used PHPBB in the past and it appears to fit your needs.
phpBB is a free flat-forum bulletin
board software solution that can be
used to stay in touch with a group of
people or can power your entire
website. With an extensive database of
user-created modifications and styles
database containing hundreds of style
and image packages to customise your
board, you can create a very unique
forum in minutes.
No other bulletin board software
offers a greater complement of
features, while maintaining efficiency
and ease of use. Best of all, phpBB is
completely free. We welcome you to
test it for yourself today*. If you
have any questions please visit our
Community Forum where our staff and
members of the community will be happy
to assist you with anything from
configuring the software to modifying
the code for individual needs. Learn
more about phpBB.
You can find it at:
http://www.phpbb.com/
You should look into Vanilla.
It's free, open-source and does not have the bloat as many of its competitors (vB, phpBB) and it also has some very well written code to go alongside a reasonably good documentation =)
Perhaps you can find a convenient open source forum software at:
http://www.forummatrix.org/
You could try Viscacha (http://www.forummatrix.org/show/Viscacha).

I am looking for suggestions, references, articles that can help me understand as how to create a website builder. My users will choose a template and then edit in the editor similar to WIX.com I am interested to offer them a platform with similar features.
If there is any article or resource available that can give me an idea as what are the pros and cons of the application.
Thanks again for your help.
This question doesn't exactly belong here but
I've built a website builder and here's the gist;
It's going to take a long time
You're describing an application that's going to take a long time to make.
A website builder is not a small application it's going to have a lot of features in order to stand out and compete with the website builders that are already in place.
You're going to have to either have a team or be good at coding yourself
This application will need to follow an architecture like MVC to be able to properly perform maintenance on your application and to keep extending it's functionallity.
You're either going to need to be good at PHP, SQL, JS and JQuery and have a lot of time on your hands or have a team to get this done with the right skill sets.
No place to walk you through
The complexity of this application would also be very high and there is no document or video that will walk you through building the entire application simply because of it's complexity.
You're going to have to come up with how to build this application yourself.
If you're going to want to be doing this make sure you're prepared and have the resources to do so, this is not just a simple little project.

I'm looking for any open-source accounting module that I can include in my Symfony project. I was thinking of writing my own & releasing a plugin, but then I came across 2 solutions:
http://arias.sourceforge.net/
http://frontaccounting.net/
Please answer on the lines of...
Choosing one of the above, your experience, community support
Other alternatives
Thanks a lot!
Here is my take:
- Arias is not being maintained any more, but I didn't invest much energy
- FA on the other hand is very comprehensive; don't go by the name, its a basic ERP. You will love to play-around at the demo link. It uses pure PHP, and no framework. One can take a lot of inspiration from here, and use it readily if the license allows.
Sadly, there is nothing for symfony and I will try to contribute.
I don't know if it's an option to outsource the accounting but if any of the following have APIs then they could possibly solve your problem:
http://billmonk.com
http://buxfer.com
http://mint.com
http://wesabe.com
I believe they let you create arbitrary (sub)accounts and issue IOUs and transfers between the accounts, like for keep track of who owes who what among a group of people.

Please suggest help articles or tutorials about PHP "low" level С-modules programming interface.
Searching through my bookmarks, only links I found are those :
Extension Writing Part I: Introduction to PHP and Zend
Extension Writing Part II: Parameters, Arrays, and ZVALs
Extension Writing Part II: Parameters, Arrays, and ZVALs [continued]
Extension Writing Part III: Resources
Wrapping C++ Classes in a PHP Extension
If you are really interested by the subject, and ready to spend some money on it, you could buy the book Extending and Embedding PHP (some pages are available as preview on Google Books too) ; I've seen a couple of times that it was the book to read when interested on this subject (In fact, I've just bought it ^^ didn't have the time to read it yet, though :-( ; the first pages seem OK...)
BTW, the author of that book is also the author of the first four articles I linked to ;-)
Read this: https://devzone.zend.com/303/extension-writing-part-i-introduction-to-php-and-zend. It's probably the only useful tutorial I've ever met.
I put my favourite links into a short blog post whilst writing php_ssdeep, which maybe helpful for people looking for extension development information.

I'm familiar with wordpress and cakePHP; however, I'm building a small community website (hobby) that allows users to post music sheet (pdf/image) or guitar tabs ( text files). These music sheets should be organized by artists and songs. I've already built my own cms, but I'm not looking forward to maintain it as i'm scared I won't have the time.
An example of this would be ultimate-guitar.com . Not the whole site, just the way they display tabs and stuff
I posted a 1 month old build for you guys to see what i've done here. the site for the most part works, but as i said, I'm scared that i won't be able to maintain it. This is not the latest build, i haven't gotten around to uploading it. It fixes most of the issues
Are there any music publishing plugins for drupal and wordpress (I haven't seen any personally)?
I'm open to other suggestions and comments as well so please feel free to mention them
It doesn’t sound like you have any music specific needs, you just need to be able to attach text, pdf or images to an item (node in Drupal) and assign tags to it.
You can use taxonomy in Drupal to assign artists to the nodes. I should think what you want is pretty simple to do. I would suggest that you try installing it and seeing what it can do.
You might want to take a look at the Guitar module, which will allow you to easily add chord fingerings to your tabs.

I'm planning to build a community-driven website with voting functionality similar to StackOverflow (or Digg etc..). I really like SO's voting system where your points are deducted for voting down someone and so on.
Anyway, is there any open-source module/component available that I can plug into my app directly without having to reinvent the wheel? The app will developed probably be in PHP or Python.
Thanks for your comments and advices.
There are a few for Django:
django-voting
django-rangevoting
django-ranking
Personally I've only used django-voting. It has a nice section on using it for a Reddit/SO style voting including templates and using Progressive enhancement: http://code.google.com/p/django-voting/wiki/RedditStyleVoting
I think the other projects have some interesting features in terms of custom ranking/sorting methods which is where django-voting can fall short.
Have a look at Pligg
Pligg started as a simple CMS to let
users submit and vote on news
articles, and that's still what we do
best. Vote on stories that interest
you and articles that receive enough
votes will appear on the homepage of
your Pligg site. Pligg offers a 5 star
method for voting or the more
traditional numbered voting as seen on
sites like Digg, Mixx, or Reddit.
Try this its written in PHP ZendFramework
phpancake
http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpancake/
A questions and answers system, where the validity of the questions and their answers is determined and moderated by the community by a voting system. This open source system is on the lines of Stackoverflow and digg.
