Jerry,
I am planning to install this for my bbV2 migration. I presume there is no reason to keep all the code for the other message board combinations with the conditionals, switches and so forth. I can just hard code it for the bbV2 url forms.
bbV2 does not support displaying posts independently of threads, and does not support displaying user profiles externally. I was planning to just provide the translation of thread and forum references.
Since bbV2 is a Perl script, the form of the urls are /bbBoard.cgi?a=viewthread;fid=3;gtid=305734 for a thread and bbBoard.cgi?a=viewforum;fid=3 for a forum. I could use your logic for the forum, but I will need to use a regular expression to skip the fid piece for threads.
When Jelsoft installed of vBulletin, they installed it in the root of the web (/var/www/html/) so there is no folder for the message board. I will need to modify the code to recognize this also.
When I have it working, I will post it here.
If you have any advice to offer, it would be appreciated.
