Hello,

I did a little bit of searching.. and called jelsoft about doing this.. How would I share the user database for vbulletin with another vbulletin? I searched for a little while, but couldnt find the answer. Can you help?

Find where the bbuserinfo is first loaded - init.php or global.php, and modify the query of one of the vbulletins to look at the other.

That's the easy part. The hard part will be modifying all the queries in register.php, usercp.php, profile.php and their related functions libraries AT LEAST to find all the queries. I'm going to take a guess in the dark and say you're looking at modifying around 100 lines of code scattered over 20 files - not easy to do.
