Hi,

I'm after a list of where to pull things like attachments and threads from the database for my own mysql statements. Although there are lots of useful hacks on here, they're all too specific. I want to be able to display threads and posts on non vbulletin pages in my way. I'm currently building a magazine section that is using mods/hacks at the moment but I can't fudge them together to get what I want.

Can someone point me in the right direction. Surely this should really be part of the documentation for such an expensive and established solution.

Oh yeah, and the chat doesn't work, otherwise I'd be asking in there. Get your act together guys....
