I'm looking at migrating from a large (1500+ HTML pages) site with heavily-modded Snitz forum, to a better-supported PHP environment. Is there a mod or hack for vBulletin that will support muti-page articles?

Most of the sections of my site are 10-20 pages of reference material, and there's close to 100 of those sections, organized in a hierarchy up to about 5 levels deep.

I've looked at Drupal, but its forums are weak and I don't need a lot of its other features. I guess I could try to integrate Drupal and VB, but I'd like to get all the content in one database searchable from a single search...

TIA....

You'd probably have to create the modification, which it does not sound like it'd be a hard job to do (multi-page articles) and I'm unaware of any modifications that support that at the moment (but like I said, it doesn't sound like an hard job.)

The vbulletin cms is yet to be released so its hard to comment on what features will be avaliable.

Multipage articles dosn't seem like it'd be hard to achieve however.

Good news! Multi-page articles will be included in the CMS :)

I also need them and asked it (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?p=1789145#post1789145). A vBulletin developer confirmed that feature.
Probably it's the new "PageBreak" BBCode or so in this screenshot (http://files.vbulletin.com/images/cart/screenshots/article_inline.png).

That's great news. Sounds like I may have to pre-buy, before the price goes up.

Thanks, everyone!
