Make vbulletin use another table for users

[DeMiNe0]

I want to be able to make Vbulletin use another table for users.

Basicly i have 2 vb licences now, and i have one forum up and running. I want to get another forums up and running, but i want to use the same user table as my other forum. Is there a way to do this?

I think it would requrie editing every call to the usertable O.o which is alot of files and edits.

I don't think so. It would be sufficiant to hook db_mysql.php, and make the necessary additions to it.

You could just modify db_mysql.php, but that would add unecessary overhead on every query...the more efficient option would to do what Zachary said, which you can find (or write) a simple too that'll just do a find and replace on all files

can someone post what i have to change or add in most or all of the files?

[Zachery]

Lurk, unless your willing to either take some time and expirement or pay someone to do this, i really dont think anyone is going to list out the change of every file in the system.

ok, i'll set up a test board and play around with it. I don't know php/mysql though. But i kinda have an idea

[Lurk]

actually, i give up
