Hello I have some Questions if you had some time to answer, let me start off by Explaining.

I have 2 sites that I want to connect to the same forum

Site (1) I'm using vBadvanced CMPS

Site (2) I'm Using Joomla CMPS

Question is I want to use the Joomla Connector/Bridge to Connect to the same Forum ? {Can this be done and how}

meaning both sites using the same forum

If your site is modified to look like two different sites then you will require two licenses for vBulletin. See the license agreement (http://www.vbulletin.com/order/license_agreement.php) for more information.

I understand the license, try reading what I'm asking as I said using one forum for both sites, I even read that some of your other mods do the same thing as I am asking.

Site 1 I want to use the Joomla Connector/Bridge to Connect to the same Forum


I think the key word is same Forum.

I understand the Law and the agreement as I deal with them every day :up:

depends on how the bridge works

if the bridge is joomla-side and pulls the users from joomla and pushes them into vB, i dont think you'll have too much of a problem hammering it out

Thanks I was not sure how to do this and what it would look like in the vb admin or will it just add the cms like vbbad does.

I'm pretty sure I would have to set the second site up using the same db

one db one forum 2 sites just different content on the front pages

yeah, you might want to ask on joomla if there is a way to separate the membership database from the content database

overlapping both databases might be slow/disorganized in terms of content management

it would certainly be the simplest solution though.. i think they really might be able to help you in the joomla community though
