z1haze Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Hi, I have a website that has a members login and everything and a sql database.. and i also have a vbulletin forums linked to the site.. is it possible to somehow link the usernames from my website database to be the same as the ones in the forum database.. so that the people do not have to register twice? i hope you understand I dont really know the lingo to explain it.

awpti Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Absolutely. I'd recommend going to the vBulletin Support Forums for information on how to do this.

z1haze Posted December 2, 2008 Author Share Posted December 2, 2008 i went there.. i think it only shows you how to link forum databases together.. my website i want to link the forums to is just a website with logins and stuff.. its not a forums.. well it has integrated forums but i dont want to use them i want to use the vbulletin forums, and use the website logins..

z1haze Posted December 2, 2008 Author Share Posted December 2, 2008 i kind of understand what they are saying up until the part where they say once FB_ and FC_ are installed then we go patching class_core.php from FORUM_B and FORUM_C setting up $main_prefix = "FA_"; so they use FORUM_A for shared tables. what does that mean?? source: http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=185021 Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/135066-sharing-a-database/#findComment-703524 Share on other sites More sharing options...
z1haze Posted December 2, 2008 Author Share Posted December 2, 2008 maybe this is a better way to explain it.. I have a website that uses a sql database to manage the users and password and such... i want to install a vbulletin on my server and someone use the same users and passwords to login to vbulletin.. without having them to register TWICE Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/135066-sharing-a-database/#findComment-703525 Share on other sites More sharing options...
awpti Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Yup, again.. Go to their forums and ask how to integrate. They probably have documentation on custom integration. If not, their users can help you. This really isn't the right place for it (even though PHPFreaks has a Third-Party software forum) Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/135066-sharing-a-database/#findComment-703544 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkWater Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Basically: You need to code this by hand to integrate with their system and vBulletin should have some documentation on exactly how they do logins.
