If I buy a vBulletin 5 Connect license do I get access to vBulletin 3.8?

[nwingate]

Yea, I know. Does that mean IB is finally going to upgrade all their old vB 3.8 sites?

Hey Guys,

I need to buy a new license so I can download/install/run vBulletin 3.8. I see on the vBulletin 5 purchase page it says (includes ability to download vB4, which we will no longer...

vBulletin 4 was pre-sold with the understanding that beta glitches would be worked out before launch. That didn't turn out to be true. So... you can understand if people are skeptical about giving vBulletin...

Check Google Webmaster Tools and read the message about the site. See if it lists the code that is causing the problem and do a search for it. That's what just happened to me this past week and it was...

[nwingate]

Kind of reminds me of MySpace templates. No offense and in fact I hope you take this the right way and get motivated to do more but.... your new competition is going more the Twitter/Facebook route. Just...

[nwingate]

That I agree with. I just don't see anything compelling after that release....

[nwingate]

Yea, it's kind of amazing to watch the fall of vBulletin and how fast it happened. Communication is terrible and the development team of the new vBulletin doesn't seem to understand what customers want......

[nwingate]

At this point I'm wishing they would copy the competition and catch back up....

[nwingate]

When trying to get an ad to show up to JUST guests is there a difference between <if condition="$show['guest']"> vs <if condition="!$bbuserinfo['userid']"> or will they...

[nwingate]

Any news on the Roadmap?

[nwingate]

What your looking for is a road map. Something that keeps getting promised to us but never seems to come about....

[nwingate]

Will there ever be support for custom URLs like vBSEO has? That would enable us who run vBSEO to switch over to the new system later if we wanted. Thanks.

Looking for more info on how to add vBulletin blog to a 3.8 site. I have purchased 4.0 suite but I don't plan to upgrade until at least 4.1 maybe 4.2. I am willing to pay for the blog addon if needed....

[nwingate]

Wow, I'll take that "long tail garbage" all day! ...

[nwingate]

So, I can download vBulletin 3 now after buying suite but not the blogs. Can I buy the blogs or what do I do until vBulletin 4 comes out?

[nwingate]

I want to buy vBulletin 4 suite and use vBulletin 3 forums now with the blogs addon. Is that possible?

[nwingate]

Thanks for the post. Looking forward to reading more about the vision of vBulletin. In my opinion vBulletin sites are positioned very well to be the next wave of social media... niche social networks....

[nwingate]

Right now we have vBulletin.org which is OK but it's really hard to find products because it's not organized by category. We need some sort of directory / store system that lists both paid and free plugins...

[nwingate]

I'd also like to see support for paid plugins and mods. That will provide more exposure to their products and encourage more development.

I think a Joomla style extensions directory would be nice as well.
