    I want to setup a CMS for my vbulletin forum that i just installed...?

    I thought VB 4 had a built in CMS system? Does it not? I have to install a third party CMS for vbulletin?

      It does if you have a vB4 "Publishing Suite" license that includes it. Yours is a vB4 "Forum" license, which doesn't.

      As those licenses are no longer on sale, you would need to upgrade to a vB5 license (which includes the vB4 Publishing Suite) and then re-download the vB4 product files (which will then include the CMS), upload these to the server, and run the upgrade script. That will then install the CMS on your site.

          No, it does not.
          An article-based Content Management System : yes.

          vB5 is unequivocally the best forum software, but not yet...

              So, i dont want to use vb 5 but i have to buy it? Would it make a difference if i bought VB 5 or VB 5 mobile suit bundle?

                  They are selling only vB5. You are allowed to use any one of current or previous vB versions with that.

                  Yes, for your pocket..

                      You are so right beishe8, thats why, i bought plugin for wordpress rather then paying 200 dollar for something i will never use.
