3rd party forum platform

Is it possible to integrate a 3rd party forum platform such as www.websitetoolbox.com/ ? If so, I assume the community members would have to use Facebook sign-in again once they clicked on the forum. Of course the major issue of using a 3rd party is that the user interaction will not be tracked and added to their standard profile. 

I did read a similar question answered about using the blog-style way of discussing topics but that is just not user friendly enough for the many, many topics we will be discussing. 

Thank you.

While it is certainly possible to use a third-party forum alongside NationBuilder — and even embed it within a basic page, as you would do with a Google Calendar or other third-party widget — it is not currently possible to integrate that sort of third-party service with NationBuilder's people database.

You may, however, consider creating a message board using NationBuilder's 'Suggestion Box' page type. This is how we manage public forums on NationBuilder.com, and find it to be both usable and effective.
