I would really like to be able to tie multiple vbulletin based websites together allowing users to have one login. I've seen bridges for vb to cms apps and I would have to think that vb to vb would be the easiest of all to do.

This one would be huge for me!

Any suggestions?

The reason this wouldnt be that easy, is because yes you *could* use the same database, but the problem is if you do that, then the settings are the same. Which means the board url is the same, which makes it worthless then, because its running only 1 then.

could you not just share only the tables of the database that refer to user name and password?

There is a modification posted here for 3.5.x (Possibly 3.6.x) that enables multiple boards on the same server to share user tables.

You wouldn't happen to know the name of it would you? I've searched before posting this thread and didn't find anything.

This may be a dumb question, but what's the likelihood of this hack working with 3.6.7 files?

I honestly couldn't say. I don't know what all has changed in terms of the edits he's performing, from 3.5.x to 3.6.x.
