Okay just got vBulletin 5 and setup a test site.

Trying to wrap my head around this as it seems kind of whonky to me.

vBulletin 5 HAS NO FORUM RIGHT?

You have to install vbulletin 4 forum in a completely separate directory if I am following the documentation.

if thats the case vbulletin 5 seems kinda of less than I was expecting as a product. It almost reminds me of windows 8 which is just some window dressing Microsoft did on top of windows 7 and makes things harder to use.

So basically vBulletin 5 connect basically reminds me of the next vb shot at a CMS system with social functionality added in at its most basic level of intrepretation right? Not trying to be negative just my observation.

Not sure where you got that from but vBulletin 5 includes a forum module and has nothing to do with vBulletin 4.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
