Both XenForo and Contentteller have a completely different codebase so this is not easily possible. However, it is possible to using PHP scripts inside of the Contentteller templates to pull additional information from a XenForo database.

Yes, it is possible to change the entire Contentteller theme/layout to whatever you want. Every single HTML element is stored in templates.
I think a good example is Legion Hardware. They ported their original layout to Contentteller using the templates.
This might be more of a XenForo question but I wonder if Contentteller could be imbeded into XenForo so that not just a mock up of Xenforos tabs and theme are showing through but the actual Xenforo ones.

I could well be interested in chipping in on such a project, to produce a common Contenteller & XenForo theme.
Well, I do 16 hour days so I need to space things out.

I think I will try and ask one question a day.

I'm prepared for the fact that it might not have the same look as my forums initially. But for the functionality it promises, I'd be willing to hire someone to make a custom theme for one, the other or both, to give it a unified feel.
And since I'm a giver, I'd release them for free as a starting point for others to expand upon them.

If this question is a no it is not a deal killer at all,
I will be moving from vB to XenForo with a custom theme.
I am curious if it is possible to have the XenForo tabs and breadcrumbs show through. Sorry if I am using wrong terminology. It would be nice if the theme was consistent.
