Hi,

I just purchased vBulletin yesterday with the hopes of starting a forum.

I have a site - http://www.bigfishpokerclub.com that I want to add the forum to.

What I want to do is use my header.php and topnavbar files to be embedded throughout the top of the forum. I also want to maintain the css of my topnavbar.

I want these to change when I change them on my site without having to change them as well for the forum.

I have seen SO many sites that have this on top of their forum.

I have read too many help files, most of the vBulletin manual and searched and searched google for a tutorial or instructions to do this. I am at a loss.

Please help me get this done.

Confused and dazed,
corpfan1

vbulletin is a template-based system - you can edit the templates to suit your needs

Skinning: Understanding A Template-Based System (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=124576)

if you know nothing about XHTML/CSS; editing of templates etc - you should hire someone

WARNING: your topnavbar CSS may conflict with the vbulletin CSS - some editing may be required
