I have something to ask about ,

I own 3 sites , and in every one I want to install a forum

the thing that this I want to let the forums use the same Database , but in the same time share the members data only , nothing else ...

meanns the threads , words ... etc to be sperated but in the same Database.

Is there is any way for it ??

:rolleyes:

Yes, it's possible, but if you are running 3 separate forums, you may need to get 3 separate vB licenses.

The licenses is simple just 255$ ,
I wana be sure that I can let the user register one time and be able to write in the 3 forums speratly

Notice , each forum is installed inedevdulay,
Forums only share users informations,
Each forum have it's own style

This is funny, Me and a friend were talking about doing a hack that does this exact thing. We had talked about making an Admin control panel that would allow the Admin to select the database and table that was used. This would give the admin the ability to share user information along with sharing forum threads as well.

Is this what you are looking for? I haven't looked deep enough yet to see if vBulletin already has this functionality but I don't believe they do?

I want to only share the user informations ,

let us say
forum1 , perfix f1
forum2 , perfix f2
forum3 , perfix f3

the tables will be like this

f1_words, f2_words, f3_words .... etc

and the user table will be user for all the forums
