Well I want to know something. Is there a way (I'm pretty sure there is I just don't know how) to make my site's page connected to the vB db? Cause I just don't know anything about PHP. I can follow instructions though :stoned: . I want to build my site of PHP. Which is already is though I want to use vB's CP to control my site. Cause that would make it a lot easier on me.

Here's what I want to do...use vB's template functions to make my pages. So I still want something like http://chocobocounty.com/index.php If I can get the front page to work first...the rest should be easy right?

Isn't there a more simple way of doing it? Rather than using Phpportal? (And I can't seem to be able to find the d/l for it on the site). Like couldn't I do something like a code to connect to the db. Then just say the templates the page is going to use or soemthing?

Sounds like he just doesn't want you using two separate instances of vB, which would use two sets of user info.

I've done this (building a site on vB) on a site I'm developing. It's been an interesting task so far.

This has nothing to do with template-hacking.
