My site is BullyBreedResource.com and I am looking to convert to Xenforo as I tried to wait out in hopes of vB actually getting better. As you can see there are several custom coded features that run along side vBulletin that I will need to convert as well. I have never coded in a mvc environment. All of my coding skills come from being self taught and this is like learning Chinese to me. It will surely be a learning process. Sadly I will have to close my site for nearly a month to convert it over. I do not know of any other way to do it and keep everything working as is now, with all data up to date.
There may be several tutorials on these questions, but I haven't looked to far into it. Any and All help would be very much appreciated.
My first question: How do I use Xenforo user authentication on external pages and sub domains?
I currently do this in vB for the pedigree database and several other features of the site.
Second question: How do I make external pages using Xenforo templates and is there a generic_shell or equivalent? Everything on my site has its own template in the vBulletin style system. Some templates call other templates.
What is the easiest way to use the jQuery popups and style from the current theme in use?
I currently use YUI as that is what was available in vBulletin and did not want to mix features.
How do I add to the menu and sub-menu in the header.
As you can see in my site if you go to different sections of the site they all have their own submenu depending on what page you are on.
How do I make my own admin pages to control my addons. All of the custom features on my site have an admin page to approve, edit, remove, etc.
What is the best way of converting code coded for vBulletin into Xenforo MVC format.
Currently I have a php file with all of the functions/classes that calls the templates from vBulletin.
That is all that I can think of right now, Any kind of guidance or direction would be great.
Thanks again,
George
