vbDrupal is a fork of the CMS Drupal. It integrates Drupal into the forum software vBulletin.
vbDrupal is a close fork of Drupal, it has only be forked to modify some of the core files of Drupal for better interoperability. All changes made to the Drupal code will be merged with vbDrupal. Therefore a vbDrupal 5.x.y release is more or less identical to a Drupal 5.x release.
Drupal and vBulletin are tightly connected with each other, user accounts and sessions are shared between the two systems. vbDrupal tries to offer the best of both worlds. vbDrupal should be compatible with all user contributed modules and themes that can be found on the Drupal site.
Besides user and session integration vbDrupal also offers various modules to bring vBulletin content into the Drupal space.:
Latest threads/posts blocks
Import any vBulletin post as content
Use vBulletin for content comments
Latest poll block
Event and birthday blocks
Use vBulletin code for formatting in Drupal content
vbDrupal 5 makes used of the Drupal 5.x series and is only compatible with the vBulletin 3.6 series. vBulletin 3.5 users can use the vbDrupal 4.7 series.
Examples of sites using vbDrupal can be found here.

Thanks I installed vbDrupal and vbulletin in the same directory and encountered one small problem ...
vBulletin's home page is "index.php" as is vbDrupal's home page.
So now I have 2 index.php pages -- vBulletin's main forum home and vbDrupal's home.
Is there a way to set vbDrupal's main home page to be something other than index.php? I renamed it and that did not work as all the links in the administration control panel are index.php?q=admin/build/themes etc. Is there a config setting to change the main drupal page to "default.php" or "main.php" or something other than index.php?
Do all additional modules have to be reprogrammed by you in order to work with vbdrupal, or can one just use any drupal modifications, once they've installed vdrupal?

almost all drupal mods will work without issue (pretty much all i've tried). i would expect those that work with login functions to be most likely not to work out of the box. in practice, since vbdrupal stays close to the core drupal, incompatibile mods are few and far between.
Hi just a quick question..... Will it chance my forums? I mean will it put the drupal side bar on my forums like in the demo site? If so is there a way i can make it where it wont do that when i install it?
