Integrate Vbulletin users>phpnuke

[Watson]

I am running 3.0.1 vbulletin, and I want to be able to integrate my database to my phpnuke.

They are both running on the same database, but I want for when a user signs up for the forums, they auto get the usual sign up/privilages on the phpnuke site.

I have over 500 members on my forums, and only 100 of them are regged on the site, and I had to do this manually.

I spent alot of time on my site in phpnuke, and dont wanna change it really, but I want the users to be able to submit news without any problems.

Can anyone help

Cheers

I have never used phpnuke, though I have heard that there was a vbulletin module for it released in the past. It did not turn vb into a module but it did at least merge the db's for you.
I personally use postnuke and we wrote our own vbulletin module for it so I know it's possible. Believe me when I say there is a whole lot more to it than just syncing the db's. First of all vb uses md5+salt where php does not use salt. Also what do you want the system to do when a user changes their profile info such as their password? Now you need to think about synching all the user and admin functions to phpnuke as well.
I have no plans of turning vb into a phpnuke module yet, but you can see vb as a true postnuke module at my site. Expect the code to be released late this summer as we still need to build all the db user import scripts and a few other mods.

nice.

Looking to not have it as a module, but pretty much get all users on the one sign up, one user cp thing etc

Yeah spose it would be difficult

There was no released cms/module from PHPNuke, it has been promised, several times by different people, but never released. There's one fully operational right now, but the author promised it would be out within two weeks, and then has disappeared for the last 2 months, never to be heard from. Fustrating to say the least, as it sort of merged nuke and VB together, and fixed a few of the problems as well.
Either PHPNuke or PostNuke, though PostNuke has a different setup. It's a race to see which one gets released.

I still use he phpnuke forums alot, so I will keep an eye out on that
