vBExternal v1.6 · **Released**: 06-12-2005

Well, this doesn't modify any php, nor use a plugin, so i wasn't sure exactly where to stick it

Anyhow, this is a port of the vBExternal for vb 3.0.7, so look at this thread for more information: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=81943

Enjoy

In fact, contrary to popular belief, this is not correct.

I understand that you're "a n00b", so you might want to ask someone for a translation if you don't quite follow all of this.

You just need to copy over your vB PHP files (/forum_root/*.php and /forum_root/includes/*.php) to your non-vB server so that you're able to include global.php. You will also need to modify your database settings in this copy of vB's config.php file to point to the remote mySQL server.

This works for me.

People: This works on all 3.5.X builds if you read back a few pages, find the fixes, and take notes. Since 98% of everything you do on the web involves reading something, you'll thank yourself later. Sadly, this is a flagrantly unsupported hack.

well someone should edit the first post providing links to all the other posts that explain on how to fix it... since there isn't any support. doing that will help out alot!

Agreed, although over a few moons around here I have gone through several hacks and tried compiling all the patches, fixes etc. into one post, and as soon as a new page starts people are asking all the same questions again anyway. So I gave up. The best I can tell you right now is this thing works if you read through this thread and suss out the solutions.
