If you buy a new license it is a VB5 Connect license, you can download VB4 Suite if you prefer but it is the suite, not the forum only version. There is no way to get the forum only version of VB 4.x anymore with a new license.

You can however disable the Blog and CMS/Article product if you don't want to use them.

Another vote for VB 4.2.2 being the best choice right now for someone who wants to do a lot of modification.

Thanks, It has been awhile since I purchased a new license. I wasn't aware that you could no longer purchase just the forum.

Thanks, I did not rwad that post as thoroughly as I should have.

In regards to WPress it is good for certain types of sites but integrating it with Vbulletin is not easy and not cheap to do it correctly. I would skip doing this and bbpress, the wpress version of a forum does suck.

3.8 and Vbadvanced is also a possibility but my vote is for 4.2.

I agree, if it is a "noob" like he says and just starting out, might as well start out on that.

I can't tell if YOU are the last one, or is it him now?

Or is he a imposter?

Hard to tell. One is TheLastSuperman but he was here first. I think he needs a username change to TheFirstSuperman

Ok, now to make this still seem like it is on topic - I think from a beginner perspective modifying VB 4 0would be as easy as changing a style-var or adding a plug in. Plus many features are built in.

Actually a gaming buddy of mine called me out on that about 6yrs ago right after my son was born he hit me up with "So Supes... now that you have a son, I guess you're not The Last Superman anymore huh?" and he was right .

What is that about? I never saw this until today but you did get paid and in a very timely fashion and I have Paypal and emails from you not only showing payment but you saying "thank you, this is more than I expected".

Why would you say this? This is absolutely not true. I greatly appreciated your help and expertise but could not have you going around moderating things on my forum after I had asked you not to several times. That is how things went South.

Sorry to anyone else for bumping an old thread but saw this and didn't know why I was attacked over this.
