    and I can’t find anyplace, or anyone that knows how I first, find a VBulletin Template “free”, and then, how do I get it into WordPress, which is hosted by Hostgator, it that matters.

    All the themes I see on wordpress are themes for regular websites, but no “forum” templates like Vbulletin or Phpbb3 (I think I have that last one right). Here is a site that is similar to what I want, hope this helps:

    Can someone please help me? Thank you in advance, Denise

    Maybe I’m a bit confused here, but why do you need to get the vBulletin template into WordPress? Wouldn’t you just be using the vBulletin template with vBulletin?

    The example site you gave is a vBulletin template running on vBulletin, there’s no WordPress there.

    You’re not confused, I am, lol! The site I gave you is just an example of what I want for a forum. It is a vbulletin template.

    Doesn’t WP have templates for forums anywhere? I can’t find them if it does. I would rather use something from within WP then an outside source that may not jive with WP, know what I’m saying?

    thank you for helping, this is the first time I’ve had anyone respond to my “distress” signal, lol!! Denise

    No, WordPress is a CMS specializing as a blogging platform, not a forum platform.

    If you want to use a forum within WordPress, try our sister project https://bbpress.org/ ??

    Ok, well that is something I didn’t realize, thank you so much! I have a few other options of places that work with hostgator, seems I saw bbpress, I know I saw weebly, and not familiar with that one.

    I just really want to find something I can use to help me get a forum up, thanks again, I will move on from WP then;) Denise

    Ohhhhhhhhhh geez James! That’s exactly what I needed, bbpress, ok, and then I guess I still need WP.

    Ok James,

    There will probably be a specific board for just the bbpress questions so maybe see you there:)

    Really, can’t thank you enough, Denise
