Shared forums between two websites

[kermit2]

I experimented with something similar a while ago. I used one vbulletin installation (with two licenses), and a plugin called 'different domain, different style' so that depending on which domain the user reached the forum from, a different style would be used. I then used conditional 'if' statements in the templates to control which forums showed on the main page.

There's another useful plugin called 'cookie cutter'. When you login from domain A, it will also place the cookies on domain B - so if you then access the forums via domain B, you'll already be logged in.
