Template Chop Shops - do they exist!?!?!

[twistsiwt]

Hello. I am a vb noob and need help or a point in the right direction. PLEASE!

We've got vb 3.5.4 up and running and have installed a few mod's no trouble.

We're struggling to find information on how (or if) we can 'cut up' the working componants of vb and stick them into another xhtml website we've created.

For example we may want to use the polling feature, or the ibproarcade gaming mod, or the threads and display only those componants on the appropriate layers on our pages.

Of course we want users to be able to interact with these componants just as they would in a vanilla vb setup.

This seems to be a step beyond template/style changes? And CMS/portal mods don't quite cut the mustard either?

• Please can anyone tell me if this "cutting & pasting" of vb compnants into other sites is possible???
• If yes, can you tell me what its called, how to do it or point me in the right direction?
• Are there any example websites?
• Perhaps there's some s/w to make this process very easy to accomplish?

Any help is MUCH appreciated.

Thanks
Stu
