    About multiple sub-domains

    If i buy a single vbulletin license, is it allowed to put up sub-domains pointing to one separate main category in the forum ?

    I saw the thread about Multiple domains but there was no info about sub-domains and i wonder if there are different rules for that.

    Is the following allowed:
    http://games.myforum.com pointing to http://www.myforum.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=1

    and

    http://computers.myforum.com pointing to http://www.myforum.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=2

    On the main page www.myforum.com there will be links to all different categories.

    Best regards A. Bergman

      Yes, I believe that's allowed. What you wouldn't be able to do is to prevent someone from getting to the content at the second link if they actually visit the first.

        Sounds great, of course the user will be able to see all forum categories from all sub-domains. The only thing that i want to do is to link the sub-domain to a sub-forum. The forum jump meny will show all forum categories from all main categories. The main domain will show all categories.

        Is the any vBulletin person who can confirm that this is allowed ?

              The forumjump will create a menu of all your forums. This is 1) intensive to build with a lot of forums and 2) very HTML heavy when sending to the end-user.
