Hello!

I'd like to hear if is possible and how, because I've seen one domain that has this feature. Unfortunately I don't remember this domain, it would explain much. But I'll try explain so you all can understand what I'm trying.

Let's say that main board is domain.com. There's all categories & forums (off-topic, gaming, market / or without market, gaming / etc), threads, topics, accounts etc.
Example.. it has market.domain.com and gaming.domain.com.
market.domain.com shows categories & forums that's about market and gaming.domain.com shows categories & forums that's about gaming. Those all boards have one same database (so threads, posts, accounts are same, not separate).

I'm using latest vB 4.2.3

There's this mod: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=254197
However it's not 100% working and has quite some missing features. The forum you've seen probably had it custom made.

Also, according to vBulletin's license, you must buy a license for each domain.

Even if the top domain is the same, and they differences are just sub domains?

Correct.

A sub-domain is also considered as a single domain.
You may only use the same vBulletin license on a domain that's private and only for testing purposes.

Yeah, I had same question. That's really stupid if every subdomain must have own license. Would be OK if every top domain must have own license.. not subdomains.

Or what about like domain.com/gaming or domain.com/market?

That should be fine since it's the same domain and it can just be considered as a clean URL (e.g. SEO purposes).
