My homepage is custom HTML but everything links to the forum on the homepage, its a custom index.php then when they go to the forum its /forum.php

My question is I would like to move away from the custom and have Wordpress as the blog on the homepage and still have Vbulletin in the same folder so we dont lose any SEO as were a a forum with over 11k members etc.

Is this possible?

What would be the downside from this? Anything?

If we can have wordpress like themes on Vbulletin man it would be so much nicer but the vb cms is still a mess imo...argh

You can install wordpress at any place in your site, ex: root/worpress or root/blog becouse its come with a .htaccess to setup or you can use the admin menu option to setup how you can see wordpress, like a front or not.

Its will no change your forums links, inside de /forum/* but take care with the error page, if a forum link not work, Worpress will show the 404 error

And you can use the same DB (forum and Blog) or make a newone.
