Well heres the thing, i bought this awesome template from template-monster for my upcoming site www.nextgenscene.com/flash and it has a login system designed in the template, i would like to add stats on the right or something, and where it shows the news i would like that to automatically update with a forum aswell, i just need to know the concept of embedding sql data from vbulletin to a template, and i need to know how to display it correctly too. I have been searching the net for weeks now and have trying on and off to figure this out for about a year now, i know its possible lol. Thanks in advanced!

It's not as easy as you think. It requires knowledge of PHP and SQL. You need to open a connection to vBulletin's database to fetch data. Then run a query to fetch that data, process it, then display it in the appropriate places.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
