You could always use Wordpress? I did that when i was on vBulletin 4

You could also use vb advanced :P

You'll get the hang of it though. Like Lynne said it just needs a bit of styling!

In my opinion, the vb CMS is still a long way from being a good publishing suite. For my sites, Im hardcore wordpress for news and vb for forums. If you are running a high traffic site, Wordpress would be your best bet if your front page gets lots of traffic (with right caching methods of course)...you'd see it in the server bill difference. Plus it's very customizable for the less code-savvy user as compared to vb.

Your right! It looked okay and some members even prefer my old vBulletin CMS to the new Wordpress home page but I couldn't get a working slider. That's the number one reason I looked for an alternative CMS.

You not only have no time for details, you also have no time for supporting your products. I'm not sure if you've ever answered one of my questions in any of your product's threads lol. I downloaded it but I'm glad I didn't bother installing it. Thanks for the offer.
I thought about using vbAdvanced but after buying the publishing suite, it felt retarded having to buy another CMS.
This is the best post in this thread. I don't even remember seeing this before. Maybe I saw your post and thought you were speaking in a foreign language cause I had no idea what you were talking about. I was really inexperienced back then.

Recently, I tried to merge my site with Joomla's JFusion plugin.

That was a fail as the latest version of Joomla and the latest version of vBulletin are not compatible. JFusion also installs a plugin in your vBulletin installation without telling you.

So I looked up Drupal VB, Drupaltin and vBDrupal and they were all out of date and not working with the latest version of Drupal and some did not work with vBulletin4 period.

Next step, Wordpress. Mission Success. Wordpress As vBulletin4 Homepage

Well, if you have the publishing suite instead of just the forum, you can get ticket support for more than 30 days after your purchase of nearly $200.

Not that it's a good thing. :D

vBulletin CMS is still beta, that's the way I think about it.
I honestly think vBAdvanced is a much better option, easy to setup and install and configure.
The blogs option is nice for the CMS, but the front page just looks terrible, no matter how much styling you do. Those blocks just look terrible.
I have yet to run into a nice front page that looks really good.
I'll keep using vBadvanced until vB decides to make vB CMS easier to edit and configure and makes it look better.
I was a vB CMS owner, and I won't try it again until it has been perfected.

Thanks, took a while to perfect the theme, but finally everything came together.
This theme front page would not look good with the vBCMS, just didn't look right.

I hope to see better improvements in the future for vB CMS.
