This would allow you to have to completely different sites while allowing the same users to log into both sites and read the same pm's and have the same profile info.

If they post to a thread would it appear on both sites?

Basically, I'm trying accomplish this:

• Visitors can login to either Site A or Site B
• Visitors would see a different style/template depending on which site they visited
• The visitors browser would display www.sitea.com/forum if they came through site a
• Visitor would see www.siteb.com/forum if they came through Site B
• Content posted on either SITE A or SITE B would appear on both
• To avoid a Google duplicate content penalty, I'd use robots.txt to disallow siteb.com/forum

The overarching goal is to "not redirect to another site - SITE A in this case", but utilize my existing community to avoid having to build a similar community on SITE B. Plus, all of my traffic building efforts on SITE B will help the forums on SITE A.

lol widgets?...

Sorry, probably overused..I certainly thought so during my collegiate years. Somewhere a college professor is happy.
