Is this osC?

[Whiskers]

I like the way that this site has got a shop as well as forum and other things, but they look like they have combined osC with vBulletin or something?

 

Any ideas?

looks like a a page with links to a forum, a shop etc etc, you can install osc into a directory and have have a page that links to the shop in that directory which is what they have done I guess.

So if I installed an fresh osC how could I get a forum on it for example?

It might be the wp.osc, a plugin for wordpress. But basically you don't shoe-horn a forum into osc, you use your graphics and design your pages within the forum and osc softwares to have a consistent look and feel, with a portal page as johnybebad suggests.

they have an index page, which is basically the landing page and links to the actually functions like shop and forum are on it.

they installed the shop into catalog directory

 

 

so you would install forum into forum directory, osc into catalog or shop directory.

 

then on your links you would have

<a href="http://www.yoursite.com/shop">Shop</a><a href="http://www.yoursite.com/forum">Forum</a>

 

thats about it really I am ure you can make things more complicated by integrating the user/customer databases.

I wouldn't need to integrate the customer database, so that's fine. Do I start with osC and build of from there with links or what? Or something like Joomla?
