I have a vbulletin 4.2 suite with an active forum page.
I also have a Facebook fan page.
I want vbulletin to post my new threats from my forum page automatically into my facebook page.
Is there anything can handle this process for me just like "Publicize" or many other plugins in WordPress?
Basically vbulletin to Facebook Fan page auto publishing.
Thank you very much for all your help.
:confused:

There's actually a way to do this via RSS Feed; there are some applications on facebook for this, but you must have your forum's datestamp needs to be in RFC-822 format in order for these applications to properly work

RSS Graffiti works pretty good for this, but it needs you to have the datestamp following the RFC-822 format, which isn't default for vBulletin.
You need to go to the AdminCP > Settings and set the timestamp to this, I have been having issues setting everything properly; yet I'll leave you here some examples of this standard:
Wed, 02 Oct 2002 08:00:00 EST
Wed, 02 Oct 2002 13:00:00 GMT
Wed, 02 Oct 2002 15:00:00 +0200
That's how date-time must be shown on your site in order to follow this standard.

Thank you for the reply. I went to AdminCP > Settings and the "Timestamp Update" is checked to "yes".
Do you mean ""Format For Time"? This is what I have in that section:
Format For Time
Format in which the time is presented on all vBulletin pages:
See: http://www.php.net/manual-lookup.php?function=date
Examples:
AM/PM Time Format (eg, 11:15 PM): h:i A
24-Hour Format Time (eg, 23:15): H:i
