Currently vBSSO provides a way to synchronize only the entities required for single sign-on. If you would like to synchronize other entities like posts, etc, you are welcome to submit a feature request on vBSSO website.

Not really a bridge in terms of the bridge originally. That's like an single sign-on standard provided on vBulletin side, where 3rd party is able to implement vBSSO API to connect your platform like well known WordPress or your own website developed using custom technologies on your own.

Yes, we do. You are welcome to give a try an "Avatars" feature in this WordPress version. vBSSO WordPress plugin fetches and displays vBulletin avatars easily.

If you are interested in other features, you are welcome to submit your request to us through vBSSO website.
