I'm reviewing the specific exception cases to the license agreement of one installation instance to one domain.
The following theoretical case it seems to me that it could be covered by exception #1. Please, correct me if I'm wrong.
Wether it is allowed under one license or not, is this possible?
would posts/changes on, say a thread of subforum "subforum-lang" in the forum.domain.com domain synchronize well with changes to the same thread in subforum-lang.domain.com?
Specific cases:
Separating content and forum styles by using subforums and forumdisplay links within a single domain is allowed because that functionality is built-in to vBulletin.
- Your forum is accessable from multiple domains but the content is the same for each link. This is OK and does not require multiple licenses. My site is an example of a multi-domain setup that is allowed:
Notice how each domain points to exactly the same content. - Your forum is accessable from multiple domains but each domain shows a different forum style. This is OK and does not require multiple licenses.
- Your forum is accessable from multiple domains and your forums are configured to show/hide certain forums based on the domain. This is not OK and requires an active vBulletin license for each domain. In this situation the forums appear to have separate content thereby making them separate forums in the eyes of the license agreement. Your forum content needs to be the same for each domain in order to qualify as a single forum.
Separating content and forum styles by using subforums and forumdisplay links within a single domain is allowed because that functionality is built-in to vBulletin.
- One central subdomain forum.domain.com where all forums exist. In it, there are general forums and other forums divided by language (Italian, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, etc.).
- One or more subdomain(s) subforum-lang.domain.com where only one specific language forum in forum.domain.com exists per peripheral subdomain.
