Should work into any Php 5.6> and phpBB 3.2 or >
Anyway it has been coded/tested under Php 8.1 and (last release at date of this post) phpBB 3.3.9. Also fix bug on previous (versions) about unwanted redirect to WP, sometime firing when an user's session was renewed, and redirect option was active.
If the URL setting is not set, the extension only will work to update email/password/Url and (if option active) to check if the email exist in WP, before to add/register an user in phpBB.
- If already installed a previous version, disable it, delete extension data into ACP, then delete the old phpBB Wordpress extension folder into
/phpbb/w3all/phpbbwordpressintegration
Download the new version
Copy the folder w3all with inside the extension phpbbwordpress
into the root phpBB ext folder, so you'll have:
/ext/w3all/phpbbwordpress/
Go to ACP -> Customise and enable the extension
Go to ACP -> Extensions phpBB WordPress settings and setup db connection values and options.
Note that if you set wrong DB connection values, on saving settings you'll get phpBB db error. In case, just return back with your browser and setup correct db connection values.
What it do?
When an user email will be updated, the same will happen for the same user with same old user email in WordPress. Both ACP and UCP.
Same goes for password and profile URL option.
Also, when an user register(and option active) the user will be added at same time into WordPress, if used in conjunction with the WordPress wp-w3all-phpbb-integration plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-w3all- ... tegration/
Note that redirects options DO NOT need to be activated if the forum display as iframe into a WP page template integration using the WordPress wp-w3all-phpbb-integration plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-w3all- ... tegration/
Enjoy!

*What it change into my phpBB?
Nothing, it only update user's data and execute redirects or cURL calls to WordPress (it depend by activated options you'll use) when required.
*Is it secure?
Yes!
*Note: you could choose to not activate the option that will add user's in WP as they have been registered in phpBB. You could just use the redirect after login. A logged in phpBB user that visit WP and that do not exist in WP, will be added "on fly" into WordPress by the (if installed into WP) WP_w3all WP phpBB plugin
