Re: vblogetin is it worth?
BTW, back at the thread starter, vBlogetin uses table designs because it is the only sure way of matching the site's layout. It's not difficult to modify templates to your liking - they are there as a guide. Had we went the CSS route (which I prefer...) it would be a disaster on half of the sites.
Once I get some spare time I am going to release some cleaner blog templates, such as the ones we use on the home page. They will probably take a bit of tweaking to match each site, but it is a step in the right direction. They'll never be a part of the core product though.
We are also building an API for sharing the blog data... for example, my blog is using the data from my blog at vBlogetin.com. It's mostly for admins (because it's not easy to set up) but it's another tool which can make the whole vBulletin layout problem much easier to solve. Currently you can get the data by hitting the PHP script with some parameters, but we are going to have it so you can include it on say, the home page of your site, with a few only lines of code. This is data only of course.
