Hey there Rhez,

Before I try to answer your question I want to point out that 'I want a project with', and that being your only post, is not really the way things work here, at least not for me.

Nevertheless I will try to answer your question regardless. I assume the IP.Board forum is already online with enlisted users on it. You can use a webbrowser control for the login, and upon success it should/could hide (me.hide form2.show can be used for that).

You can also use a/the API of your forums, if you have one. I dont know how to use it but maybe if you post the explanation here someone can.
Practice makes perfect!

As clanc said, we do like our new members to introduce themselves before attempting any other post :)

Regardless, without more details (perhaps a link to the actual site), it's difficult to say how this could be done.

If IP.Board work like phpBB, then it would be possible to scan the Web page looking for a successful login message (or an error if the login failed) and hide the form accordingly.

If you own the webserver you could write an api for the login using php and mysqli then echo a message if the username and password matched

IpBoard as said above has its own built in API that you can use and import into VB.Net, any other ways won't work unless you do it by your hosts MySQL. The reason it works with other websites with different methods is due to them having built in login acceptions or handlers while ipboard has none.

I think it has hashing system for the login(it needs to be implemented)

It has a page in the Cpanel for API, but you must implement it yourself, so yes.
