Not sure where to look for answers.

Problem:

I have a website with vbulletin installed.

I also have a drupal website using the marinelli template. It displays the secondary links across the top, and has two side menus which are displayed side-by-side on right side, with content on left side.

Right now when i click on the drupal "forum" navigation menu, it displays the drupal forums.

I want to eliminate this, and replace it with a link called "Forum" on the secondary menu. When people click on Forum, i want my drupal site to display my vbulletin forum in place of the content and two-right menus.

I am not looking to integrate them together. I only want to display my vbulletin as the drupal forum is currently displayed. I will be the only person logging into drupal, while visitors will log into vbulletin.

The Concept

The concept is to keep my vbulletin as a seperate website. But, also display it within my drupal site, where visitors can use the more powerful vbulletin suite; while i use drupal to post articles, stories and blogs.

I did try iframes, but I couldnt get this to work as other threads suggested. I figured if i added my vbulletin url to the iframe, then it would display on the node page as i want it to. But, i couldnt get it to work.

You can try http://drupal.org/project/drupalvb

The usual caveat with using a bridge instead of Drupal's forums is that you can't get true integration. But that doesn't sound like it's important to you, anyway, so it might suit your needs.
