I have installed the freeware ST and I have a working version of vBulletin 3.0.5 running. I am able to log into ST with my forum login and password.

My question is now that I am sharing the database is there a way to click on the "forums" link in ST and get my vB forums and not the stock ST forums?

I don't want it to open in a new window (target="blank_" ) but within the ST CMS itself. Is this possible?

The easierst way to doing this is to add the HTML code from site_header/site_footer to vB3's header and footer templates.

To view site_header/site_footer in Storyteller:
Templates => Edit => site_header/site_footer => Edit

To select header/footer in vB3:
Styles & Templates => Styles Manager => Expand Templates => header/footer => Edit

Let me know if you have any questions.

Not quite what I wanted.... all that does is pops up my forum over the rest of the CMS.. I was hoping it would open alongside the menus on the left.

Baically similar to if I click Reviews or Links or Comments, etc. They open in the frame over to the right. I was hoping I could get my forums to do the same thing.

I would also like it if the user cp, calendar, etc all opens in the ST window. (See my example below)

You need to change the following line in the template site_header with the template editor:

<li><a href="https://www.contentteller.com/forums.php">Forums</a><br /></li>

to:
<li><a href="https://www.contentteller.com/url-to-your-forum/index.php">Forums</a><br /></li>

You need to replace url-to-your-forum with your forums url.
