site integration?
 
How would I go about integrating my forum installation to be used as a CMS into a layout I have?

Any help is appreciated. :)

Could someone give me a basic script example I can work with? :)

Include global.php and then you can check to see if someone is logged in using something like..
PHP Code:
if($vbulletin->userinfo['userid']){
//User is logged in
} 
You can use the login form from the navbar if you want just make sure you change the location of the action attribute if your page is not located in the same directory of the forum itself.


^^Thats for the users aspect of it.

Now you said CMS too, so Im guess you would also want to use VB as the base of posting content for it as well. The easiest way I have done that in the past was just to create a couple of hidden forums for the different categories and then draw in threads from those forums to be displayed as content.

Along the lines of creating a basic template for other use, this the basic script:

Source: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=62164

In test.php

PHP Code:
<?php

// ####################### SET PHP ENVIRONMENT ###########################
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);

// #################### DEFINE IMPORTANT CONSTANTS #######################
define('NO_REGISTER_GLOBALS', 1);
define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'test'); // change this depending on your filename

// ################### PRE-CACHE TEMPLATES AND DATA ######################
// get special phrase groups
$phrasegroups = array(

);

// get special data templates from the datastore
$specialtemplates = array(
    
);

// pre-cache templates used by all actions
$globaltemplates = array(
    'TEST',
);

// pre-cache templates used by specific actions
$actiontemplates = array(

);

// ######################### REQUIRE BACK-END ############################
require_once('./global.php');

// #######################################################################
// ######################## START MAIN SCRIPT ############################
// #######################################################################

$navbits = array();
$navbits[$parent] = 'Test Page';

$navbits = construct_navbits($navbits);
eval('$navbar = "' . fetch_template('navbar') . '";');
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('TEST') . '");');

?>
Now create a template called "TEST".

PHP Code:
$stylevar[htmldoctype]
<html dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]">
<head>
<title>$vboptions[bbtitle]</title>
$headinclude
</head>
<body>
$header

$navbar

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr>
    <td class="tcat">Title</td>
</tr>
<tr>
    <td class="alt1">Text</td>
</tr>
</table>

$footer
</body>
</html>

^To note: That code is to create custom pages that use the forums style options. But you can use templates to store the HTML for your 'other layout' as well
