OK, so here is what I would like to do.
I want to link my application, with my VBulletin forum. But I want to make it so only certain groups can see certain content on my application.
For example: A registered user on my forum can't see certain content on my application, but a premium member on my forum can see that content.

Hm, well, I have never worked with vBulliten before. However, I am assuming that they have some sort of API so forums can be accessed via clients. Search around their website and see if they have anything that may be of use. Directly viewing the forum via a MySQL Script may not work properly, and could cause some sort of problems with the Forum.

Wow, just as I was about to give up I noticed at the bottom on the admin panel "Vbulletin API" haha.
So yes, vbulletin does have an API system!

Fantastic! I don't know what language this API is written for, but it is usually written for the most popular languages, and can normally be adapted into any language in the world.
So, good luck with the API! From experience, APIs take a little bit of work to master, so remember to mess around in order to learn!

Possibly although not likely, APIs are generally code written in a particular language therefore they only work in that language or spin offs of that language. So, you would need to take the source code of that project and compile it into a different language. From what I Can Gather from some minor research
