I know a number of posters often ask how to integrate their vB system with other parts of their site.

We have had a fully integrated website linked to the vBulletin membership system for some time now - i.e. if your not a member you can't access certain pages.

Recently we added a secondary membership level option for a private members forum which takes this a bit further by allowing the user to register full personal details and have the system automatically "upgrade" them to the next membership level. We're about to take this further by implementing a full subscription-paid premium service using a secure payment system within the next few weeks.

If anyone is interested in the various bits of code that allowed us to do this, please email me at admin@unquoted.co.uk and we'll get the programmer to package it up into something reasonably generic.

The website can be viewed at http://www.unquoted.co.uk - it is a financial news service that covers the UK's "third" stock market - OFEX which allows share trading in unquoted and unlisted companies. If nothing else you might get some tips on some companies that could be the next Microsoft :)

Nice guy
Congrats!

Sounds great!

This would be a great idea for the board that I'm just starting on...

Check your email, I went you a request. :)

Thanks!!

I see your boards are 1.1.6........

are you going to release this as a 2.x upgrade?

and is this free?

anyway, thanks for sharing :)

Yes we will happily share the code because as you could imagine, much of it was based on other postings from this site.

We have no plans as yet for a vB2 version as we have decided to hold back completely on version 2 until it comes out of beta - also (controversial statement here) - I actually prefer vB1's simpler layout.

I requested too, sounds awesome!
