Pre-Buy Questions.

[Felix Hornoiu]

Ok, first I'm not a programmer, but I have some friends doing that. I have experience working with cms's like wordpress, joomla and with forums in phpbb.

I intend to buy a full pack forum + cms, for an online skate comunity. And I am making my mind between Invision Power and vBulletin.

1. I really need that news section, so i don't need to have two ws in one. But as I don't have time to write all the news/blog myself I have some contribuitors with some blogs. I have their RSS feed and I want to AutoPost it to my NEWS/BLOG section.

It is possible via the vBulletin Cms?

2. Gallery Do this system have that, I have a lot of diskspace and I don't want to share pictures an flickr or other stuff.

I have the demo and I will study it and send feedback soon!

1) I'm fairly sure this can be done with the default software. But then again, I'm not a heavy user of the CMS product as of yet. I could be wrong...
2) I am sure that there is no real 'gallery' in the base software. If you want a full-gallery system, you'll need to find a third party product. There are a few good ones that have built-in integration with vBulletin.
