Hey,

I am trying to figure out the easiest way to incorporate my PHP SESSION / DATABASE driven site with VB.

I want members who are registered to automatically be able to post in forums without having to re-register with the forums. Is this possible? How hard? I'm an intermediate PHP programmer and was wondering if any of you vb pros have some suggestions. I thougtht about rewriting my site to be driven by VB but I'm not too sure this is the -easiest- way to do this.

Suggestions? I certainly would appreciate any!!

Thanks,
Josh

P.S. VB is absolutely the best forum software I have seen in a while!

Hmm, I think the easiest way would be to create a script to that uses your existing account-data to create vB-Accounts.

Moreless, for each user you will have to create a new record in table user, then call $DB_site->insert_id() to get the userid and afterwards create the accompanying records in the usertextfield and userfield table.

When finished you should also call build_user_statistics(); from functions_databuild.php to update some caches.

Second request that has showed up in the hack database...is it really that tough to tell the difference between the two?
