We are considering using vBulletin as part of our customer support service. We already have in place a customer account creation and login service that is tied to many different processes. We would like to be able to have vBulletin "call out" to our registration server to authenticate users and allow accounts created in our existing system serve for the forums. The authentication service would also provide some additional attributes for the user to be applied when viewing their posts (and to affect their permissions), similar to your Priority Forum Support.
I've been looking through the documentation and searching this forum but have not found anything related to this other than a request for future support of OpenID (not what we're looking for.) I imagine that there is a way to do this using plugins and a bit of code. but I have not found any pointers or examples. Please point me in the right direction. Thanks.
