TYPO3 Mailingliste: nicht fragen - lesen!

Hi there,

I am planning to integrate Vbulletin on my website and was wondering if
someone with some experience could give me some tips.

I planned to have 1 Typo3 Multi-domains installation with each of the domain
using their own template and therefore own vbulletin design. The users can
be synchronise among all domains, that would be fine. I would hve several
installation of Vbulletin on the server (one for each domain).

I. First is the embedding of Vbulletin in Typo3: where should Vbulletin be
installed?
1. Is it better that it is in the same folder that Typo3 root or anywhere
else would do the job?
2. The Vbulletin database: should it be in the same database as the Typo3
install or it can use it's own database. In the later case i would use one
database for all Vbulletin installs.

II. Which extension to go with?
hr_vbulletin_connect which as been updated today would be the more logical
choice?
But there are also vbulletin_connect and vbulletin_auth.

Thanks in advance for your advices.

Cheers
Antonio

Thanks for your replay Herbert,

I guess i would then have to use one typo3 install per domain or find a way
to access Typo3 data (users, news,etc..) from other T3 installs...

Cheers,
Antonio

Hi again,



Sorry but I have one more question,



I want my Vbulletin to really look like part of the page and have my Typo3
menu on the left side of the forums.

What would be the best way to achieve this? Just making a static HTML
template with my T3 navigation menu on it or is there a better way to marry
the two?



Regards,

Antonio

Hi Antonio,

I was developing a extension: hr_vbulletin_connect,
it is still experimental at the moment, but should work.

With the extension hr_vbulletin_connect you can run only one VBulletin, not
three.

For hr_vbulletin_connect I installed it in a folder "forums" in the typo3
root folder.

You can it install anywhere on the same server, but this was not tested.

No, vBulletin can have it's own database.

vbulletin_connect use vBulletin as master system for frontend users. It is
maybe better if you want to extend the vBulletin (already running system)
with typo3.

I think this is a problem. A Solution is to move the menu to the top,
because
you can easy modify the template for the header. I see that most people do
so. A example is this website:
http://www.typo3forum.net/forum/vbul...bindung-6.html
but this website don't use hr_vbulletin_connect.
But I am not Â*familiar in customizing the VBulletin board. I havn't done
this.
Only dig in the php-code ;-)

Herbert

this is easy:
- make a page in TYPO3 to generate header/footer for vBulletin.
- make a PHP script that take this page and write it to a file
- insert in vBulletin template needed PHP code to read this file

I make old vbulletin_auth extension and some integrations:

La Cascara (vBulletin 3.5.x login box with one-time user login)
http://lacascara.tv/
http://lacascara.tv/foro/

Net War Gaiming Italia (vBulletin 3.5.x login box with one-time user login)
http://www.netwargamingitalia.net
http://www.netwargamingitalia.net/forum/

Yes, possible to cut any parts of HTML of TYPO3-pages (Header, Left
menu,footer)
Then insert this parts to needed place in vBulletin template.
So you will get menu on vBulletin (if you wish, with any content
elements, that you insert in left columnt of the TYPO3 page, that will
act as "template" for vBulletin)
