Can you create a new thread, from a remote non-forum page?

[sothis]

There are lots of modifications out there to pull info from a feed in a vbulletin non-active forum, and then output it on another non-forum page (so a news post could show up both in the forum, and simultaneously somewhere else on the site).

I'd like to do the opposite. I already have a form where I input site-based news items. I'd like to know if it's possible for me to then send whatever variables I need (my login credentials, the title of the new thread, the content, etc) to vbulletin, so a new thread is created in the forum of my choosing.

Anyone know?

thanks!

well 2 options:

1. you can use the datamanger for threads

2.in 3.6.x you can have vbulletin parse rss feeds and post items from them in a specified forum.

Nice! This is exactly what I was looking for, as I already have RSS feeds set up on the news pages. Thanks for the response

I am just starting to look for this. Would appreciate some direction where to look.

Specifically: I would like the threads list of a VB forum to show up on a non-forum page. Like the 'latest discussions' list I have seen on some home pages. Is this what's called an 'RSS feed'? I am new to all this. Thank you anyone.
