For those who have been hiding in a cave the last 10 years, vBulletin is a PHP bulletin board and argubly the best discussion software available on the internet. I have been using it since around 2001 for building communities. I read about vBulletin building a blog into future versions of their software a while ago but I assumed that it was still quite some time away from launch.
I received an email from them today about the release of version 3.6.8. In the email they noted that
vBulletin 3.6.8 was recently released as a maintenance release to improve the stability of vBulletin and provide compatibility for the upcoming vBulletin Blog addon. The Blog will therefore require a minimum of vBulletin 3.6.8.
You can see a live version of the vBulletin blog here. This news might not interest some bloggers but it is big news for forum owners who have been looking for a good bridge between their forums and their blogging databases. Infact, I upgraded my forum’s blog to the latest version of wordpress a week or so ago but I found it very difficult to integrate the forum and blog design together. Not to mention the fact they both use different databases for member information. This could be the answer I am looking for.
You can see the official announcement from vBulletin regarding this here.
I run a massive Arizona Sports forum (ArizonaSportsFans.com) and we have vBulletin. Before I knew about their blog development, I tried Textpattern, then just switched to WordPress…
I wonder if vBulletin will give the ability to import content. I really like WordPress and I can't decide if I want to switch a FOURTH time (Also not sure I want the blog and forum connected)…but if I do, I hope I can import stuff.
I haven't tried out vBulletin's blog yet but at the moment I would still suspect that wordpress is better. However, vBulletin have a lot of top guys in their team so I'm sure it will be tweaked a lot. Plus you will have the added benefit of the blog being integrated with your forums member database
vBulletin is one of the best for sure.
I have ran some pretty successful blogs in amount of people, but always made more money in blogging.
What about you?
I run a decent sized forum also.. This is very interesting news – I wonder if they will offer conversion from WordPress?

Good Day
Just wanted to share my new experience.
If your system fails to run due to an error related to missing HAL.DLL, invalid Boot.ini or any other important system boot files you can repair this by using the XP installation CD. Just boot from your XP Setup CD and enter the Recovery Console. Then launch "attrib -H -R -S" on the C:Boot.ini file and delete it. Launch "Bootcfg /Rebuild" and then Fixboot
Cheers,
Carl
Does anyone else think the Refer-a-Friend bonuses being given out are (in-part) a means to get low level players leveled up in time for WotLK? Get them into the fray, more addicted and increasing the longevity of their subscription?
My husband and I want to go on a awesome long vacation soon. We were looking for advice. Anyone have any fantastic locations? A way to save a little cash would be awesome too. Vacationing is pricey these days.
Hi forum users and readers I hope you can solve a stupid problem with my computer

Okay I hope you can give me any ideas, Im gonna check back to the forum in couple days to see what you have suggested, Bye!
