Multiple sites

[Jaxx]

I'm hoping I have the right place to post this. If not, it'll be moved.

But I currently admin one site that will be adding a 2nd domain, possibly a third. And we wanted to do something, but not sure about how to go about it.

What we want is to have several sites, i.e. web1, web2, web3.

Now when someone goes to web1.com, they would get a particular homepage with news for that particular site. They click on the forums, they get 'general forums' plus that site specific forums.

And then at same time someone goes to web2, they get different news for that site and when they click on forums they also get the 'general forums' plus their specific site forums.

Now, I do understand this: Your forum is accessable from multiple domains and your forums are configured to show/hide certain forums based on the domain. This is not OK and requires an active vBulletin license for each domain. In this situation the forums appear to have separate content thereby making them separate forums in the eyes of the license agreement. Your forum content needs to be the same for each domain in order to qualify as a single forum.

Question I guess is if we have a total of 3 licenses, how could we possibly still use only one forum install? Or is there a way to share a set of forums on 3 sites but still have seperate ones for each?

I hope that makes some sense.
