Programmatically adding topics/threads in phpBB/SMF/?

    Hi all!

    I'm in the market for a forum, preferrably free (phpBB, SMF, Snitz, etc.). What I'm having trouble finding is how to programmatically add a topic.

    For example, when a user enters a set of information, I'd like create a thread in the forum for that information to be discussed, and consequently, know the URL to access such thread so I can pop it into a link with the information.

    I spent some time searching for how to do this in phpBB and SMF today, but could not find anything obvious.

    So, if someone can recommend a forum package that lets me do stuff like this easily (feel free to include your personal advice on the best forum package too and why) I'd really appreciate it! I guess this is kind of a dual question since I'm not dead-set on any particular package yet.

    Thanks,
    Mike

    Well, I found something called phpbbfetchall which will do what I need with phpBB.

    I'd still be interested in any opinions on better solutions if you know of any.

    Thanks!
