    New thread on forum from CMS based Zope site.

    I am new to the vBulletin world and was wondering if there was a way to create a new thread by clicking a link in a story on my Zope site? I know there are ways to do it, but as I said I have been a vBulletin customer for about 2 days now.

    Thanks in advance.

    You could, in theory, add link to the 'new post' page at the bottom of your stories but I've not tried this.

    You'll have to do this each time you write an article though so that you direct people to the correct forum. Unless it's going to be the same forum every time in which case it may be possible to add it to the foot of the article template?

      The forums that we use now are located here. What was done in the past was there was a button that would, once clicked, create a new thread in the forums under the Local News thread. When it created the thread it would automatically name it the same as the story from the newspaper.

      I have an email out to another of our papers that uses vBulletin but I haven't heard from them as of yet.
