Can you tell me if this is possible?

I want to create a php script that pulls in all the data from the currently-logged-in user's profile page. I want my users to be able to click a link called "my profile" on a non Vb page (a joomla CMS page fwiw) which will load the users profile in another page (also joomla) that I can design completely independently of VB.

The basic rational is that my users are technologically challenged and i need to be able to present their profiles to them in a less complicated way (believe it or not, some people find the User CP a little baffling!)

Thanks for your help!

I have done this using vbAdvanced. It allows you to create custom pages and link them to PHP scripts. Your PHP scripts can then eval custom templates. With this setup you can pull any vbulletin information within your code. (ex: $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] would be the userid of the person viewing your page)
