Question about VBuklletin

Discussion in 'vBulletin' started by marcusofplymouth, Jun 14, 2010.

    Hi everyone. I was going to go for a custom solution for my website www.footballforums.co.uk.

    I am however thinking about using vbulletin but was wondering if it has the functions I need. I have had a template designed:

    photobucket.com/footballforums

    Would everything you can see on the homepage template be able to be done with Vbulletin? Posting data on the home page, member photos, blog, etc. Is there anything you can see that wouldn't be able to be done?

    Thanks very much guys in advance!

    You would need to know some CSS and HTML for it to work.....Suite has a built in CMS. Hire somebody to do work for you if you don't want to work with the messy stylevars.

    Its a great looking design.

    All of them would be doable with vbulletin. Like ChopSuey said you would need a good deal of knowledge in vbulletin, css, html to accomplish this. Or you can always hire somebody:)

    Thanks for the feedback guys!! How much do you think it would cost to get this coded? I realise it would depend on a number of things, but how much would you expect to pay, or better yet, how much would you charge?!!

    OK. So would an option for me be to use the template I already have for the homepage and then to have a simple design for the forum/blog page? Or should I get the forum pages, etc designed too?

    Seems like you haven't bought the software. Are you planning to buy it?

    Chopsuey, I am definitely thinking about it but I want to see how much it will cost to get everything coded around the homepage template above. Would be nice to get some pre purchase questions asked......

    Looks like almost $500 or more. Depending on the skin you would want.

    you might find somebody at vbteam.info
    they wont require you buy it first to ask pricing questions on styling.
