I posted the following over at vB.com... It might belong here instead, and is this another way of looking at what you're trying to do?

Quote:

Scenario:
Site A and Site B are both about Fishing. Site A focuses mostly on East Coast fishing, and Site B on the West Coast. With both sites' admins cooperating, would it be possible to link to sections of each others' database such that Site A could have a forum or sub forum about "Washington Fishing" that used content from the same named forum on Site B? Also, the vice versa... Site B wants a forum on "Florida Fishing" to use content from the corresponding section of Site A...

Each forum applies their own styles/themes/etc., so it's just a matter of the user and post content tables, right? Seems similar to 2 sites sharing a common user database between them?

Alternatively, is there a way to set up a "private" RSS feed for all posts in "Washington Fishing" on Site B to which Site A can subscribe using the RSS Feed Manager?

Is my idea radical enough to involve code changes to the stock vB? Does this really belong over at vBulletin.org???

Any input or help is greatly appreciated...
