Hello All,

I'm considering to buy vBulletin because I have used almost every different forum software out there and the base of vBulletin definitely seems to be the best, however I need to have some options which i'm not sure are available to vBulletin.

I asked over in vBulletin.com and they gave me an ok answer but I know you guys are die hard modders and will most likely answer the questions better

1. I am very big on SEO and I like to have lots of control over the way the urls are rendered. I would like to use the main category of each forum as the first directory and then any sub categories for the sub directories, finally showing the thread in a html or similiar format. I would also need the ability to add nofollow to links. Can anyone suggests any good addons for this?

2. To start I just want a list of the products that our company will offer. However down the road I would like people to have the ability to order online and pickup the items they ordered in the store. Are there any addons that can do this? If not are there any alternative programs that will plugin to vBulletin and use a single login but not necessarily be directly part of vBulletin?

3. I plan to offer both Spanish and English forums. I wonder if it's possible to show / hide the forum categories based on language selected? This isn't really critical, I just don't want to clutter the screen.

4. Portals, i'll definitely need one since i'll want to keep people updated on whats going on, events etc. Any suggestions? I noticed this site uses a portal (a nice one at that)!

Thanks in advance for your help!

Nick

I just thought of one more. Are there any bridges for CMS like Mambo or Joomla?
