# WordPress forums integration?

 * Hi all:
 * On our website, we’re currently using a custom-built CMS, but we’re considering
   our options as we’d like to move to a simpler solution. As our forums use vBulletin,
   we purchased 4.0 Suite in order to give it a test run, and regretted it not long
   after. We’re leaning towards WordPress as it seems easier to deal with and is
   better supported.
 * I have seen mods floating around for vBulletin 3.x (old version) to integrate
   it with WordPress, but nothing supports the latest vBulletin 4.0. My question
   is… is there other forum software out there that tends to integrate nicely with
   WordPress? We’re looking for a solution that essentially makes our forum user
   accounts work with WordPress, so users could post on WordPress using the same
   account they use to post on the forums.
 * Any suggestions or insight would be appreciated.
 * Thanks!
    DS

 * You can do that with bbPress and/or BuddyPress.

 * I use SimplePress, but I heard Mingle has a nice forum too.

 * Pease don’t sign your posts. It’s considered spamming and not permitted here.
