I purchased vbulletin 4 months ago. There is little to no support as far as I can see for integrating it with my website. I have a "real" website that just needs a message board.
Any suggestions on which board to use or info on the "secret" place they hide instructions for vbulletin integration?

What exactly are you trying to 'integrate'?

ya, I'd have to ask the same question...what are you trying to do? The new site I'm building offers recent posts from specific forums relevant to page content, login abilities and others.

It's impossible to supply 'integration' instructions for every type of website out there. You need to start asking the right questions and posting information about how your website is set-up. If you do this people will be willing to help you.

Also please remember that this is a not a copy/paste affair 99% of the time. You have to be willing to learn this stuff and spend late nights working on your own.

Or you have to be willing to pay someone else to do it :)

don't pay for the custom installation by vbulletin, you will lose a huge chunk of money and get a "too bad so sad" response after you hire someone else to fix their screw up and ask for your money back.

to intergrate with your existing site, just use a link dude
And have a style the is the same as your site or change your site to the same as forum. Easy
