Question before purchase.

[Jordin]

I am interested in purchasing forum software for my site, but I need it to be integrated with my Zen Cart store. I have been looking through forums for hours on this subject and I am not getting anywhere, just a bunch of old links and incomplete answers. I Know that this has been asked before, but as far as I can tell, nobody has given a complete answer.

Here is my question:

Is there some way to integrate my Zen Cart store with the vBulletin forum so my customers/members only have to register once at either my store or forum, and are able to use both the forum and store with the same user name?

Basically, I want my members to register only once and use both my vBulletin forum and Zen Cart store with the same user name.

I need to keep Zen Cart, as I have it modded to give my customers reward points on their purchases, and too many customers have already accumulated points to change cart systems now.

I just want to know if this is possible, and if it is possible, is there a mod to do this?

Thanks in advance for your help!
