I apply for a lot of betas, and what usually happens is companies have a registration form on their website. I sign up and get an email back with information about signing up for the private beta forums. They tell you to specifically use the email address that you signed up with for signing up with vBulletin. So I'm guessing I automatically get dumped into a user group when I sign up.

Does anyone know if there is a plugin that does that can do that or are these custom queries?

Thank you!

you need a Single Sign On feature, the databases with hold similar tables like

UserID
UserName
Email Address
Uusegroup

what happens from that point is that the information is shared on all those forums

Is that difficult? How much of a coder's time would that take?

Thank you so much for your help Simon.
