Did you ever find an answer to this? I’m in the same situation. I’ve got a large vbulletin site with 40,000 posts, already well-indexed by the engines. I’d love to organize the non-forum parts of the site with a CMS with a navigation bar that will be visible to forum visitors.
I have a forum that I created a month or so ago that I have this bridge on. It doesn’t have any real user traffic so I don’t know how it performs under load, and there are a couple of bugs, but if you are interested I can probably help you out.
The forum is here: http://motomaniacal.com/en/forums/
and the wordpress blog is here: http://motomaniacal.com/motopress/
When you post in the wordpress area it allows you to select which vb forum you want to handle the comments, but like I said there are some bugs and the guy who made the plugin absolutely sucks at providing support so you will have to fool around with it to make it work. I can elaborate on the issues if you need me to.

That is a really kind offer to help. I’ve installed the bridge plug in and it seems to be working, but if I log out of the wordpress blog it will log me out of the forum, but not the blog. in other words: I can log back into the forum with a different username and the original username remains logged into the blog. I was trying to test it as a regular user and now I can’t log back in as admin (on the WordPress blog)
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
