    Ok, I bought this so long ago and have not used it yet. I can't seem to get it integrated with my Portal system, vBPortal.

    Anyway, I am trying to figure out how to use this with the vB plugin I bought.

    When a user signs up, they have to select a username, but they can't use their vB forum username cause it exists already. Doesn't make sense. They should be able to use their username from VB with the proper password.

    THe login name should get pre-populated with their vB username if the cookie is present or they are already signed in, then they just have to put in their password and bang, it's all done.

    I am getting the feeling the this is just for ppl that have never registered with the forum before and are brand new. If this is the case, this is not good for my site. It should be able to work both ways.

    Someone needs to explain this to me.

    THanks,
    Derek

    They just need to use the same username/password/and email that their current vb account uses.

    If they use a different password or email, then they will get the "username already taken" error.

    Cheers,
