WP Forces a 404 on Vbulletin Forums

[johnstires]

I have a WP blog as the main domain of my website. mydomain.com.

I want to use vbulletin as the forums for that site:
mydomain.com/vbulletin

However WP is forcing a 404 because it thinks /forums is a dead WP page.

How do I allow WP and vbulletin to work together? Do I need to edit something in the .htaccess?

I am not trying to integrate them I just want them both to work on the same domain.

Simplest way?

Create an empty Wordpress page called forums.

Then when your .htaccess sees yourdomain.com/forums/ it should switch to your forums automatically if you use /%postname%/ as your permalink structure.

If that doesn't work than one of your Wordpress plugins has modified the default redirect behavior.
