Take a look - it's something i'd looked at before, but now it's totally free to download :)

I wonder if one of you experts might take a look at it and let me know if it's possible to integrate the member database of both systems, so that our users simply register once for the whole community - and get to personalise the lot :)

Anyone ? Or maybe this is something which John/James might wish to investigate once V2.0 is out ?

Thank you Thank you Thank you

I think I have fallen in love with your for that link

I have been working on something similar for weeks and did not like the results I was getting.

Thank you

The Just for You script uses a mySQL database so in theory they would be easy to integrate. The problem is that I don't have a copy of vBulletin.

I'll have a go if someone could email me the format of vBulletin's user database/table.

Many thanks,
Peter.

isn't this going to be in 2.0.0?

I believe that there will be a facility to personalise the forums in the new release... but not the ability to personalise the front page of the main website. However, I feel that there is a big demand for a full community suite - forum, articles, links, news headlines grabber, homepage peronalisation, etc, etc. - all based around a central membership system, so maybe John/James are considering something like this ?

Peter,
That sounds great, but i'm no expert, else i'd have a go myself - I could send you the whole script, but I am sure that's against the rules, so i'll have to let someone who knows vB take a look at it if they are interested in this. And, rather than hack vB, I feel it'd be far better to amend Just For You to fit with the existing structure set by vB. The reason being that, once I had this up and running, i'd not expect to make any changes to it... whereas i'll be updating vB every time a new release comes out... :)

Glad others are interested in it though...

Peter, just saw your sig and realised that you are 'Mr Fudgecake' himself... :)

Might it be possible to incorporate some standard membership system between these teo products in a future release ? I see at the moment that this script is now freeware, well if the two systems could be tied in - with active forum topics, etc. as an option in the personalisation system, then I feel sure that you would attract paying customers. (hint, hint...)

It shouldn't be too hard to change, as user database queries are limited to 6 or 7 pages (at a quick glance).

The user table structure follows:
I don't think there'd be any objections to me posting this, as a good section of this structure can be obtained from alternative *cough*error->view source*cough* methods. :)

is this similar to PHP Nuke ?? because I have already integrated the membership of Nuke and vB (lite)

Hi all, I have the same sort of problem.

My site is completely database driven (mySQL), excluding vBulleting the db size is around 10mb at the mo. Site url http://www.e-tones.co.uk

I have nearly 5000 registered members (100+ new ones each day, whay! :D ) however my bulletin has only 300 members, buts its growing pretty quick :(

I have lots of confused visitors who try to post using their site login details.

Would it be possible to maybe perform a join of my 'people' table and the vbulletin 'user' table ? Or would both need to be merged, if they do I can see problems occuring...

Please help, I need you :) <G>

Thanks for the user table info Stallion.

As I don't have the full vBulletin script myself perhaps someone could explain what the following fields mean and the parameters that they take?

The ones I need more information on are:

Short explanations of these would speed up my coding enormously.

Cheers,
Peter.
