login page (before forums show)
 

Hi,

I am wanting to create a page on my site which will act as the home of my members area with links to forums, gallery, etc. I am wanting to use the login system from vBulletin to log users in, from this page they will see latest discussions, and links to the forums, forum stats, etc.

Is this possible?

How do I go about implementing such an idea?

I have used the login from non vb page before, but that just logs me straight into the forums.

Thanks,

David.

you have to make the new page and then arrange the htaccess

how is htaccess going to work with this? surely I need to use the vB databse to login?

What about a portal system such as vBadvanced?

don't need all of the features from it, I just want to do that, from there the users can do what they want with submitting pictures to the gallery (photo post php) and browse the forums.

Have you looked at the app? It's very modular. I use only a 10th of the app for my needs. Just might save you the headache of having to reinvent the wheel. :)

And if you'd rather go a different route... why not create an external page utilizing something like this: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=132996
