I have a scratch-built Content Management System in place that was designed specifically for the needs of my site.
But what's currently lacking is the ability to start a thread on the forums when a new news article is submitted: what I'd like is for a thread to be started in a specified board, with a link to the newly submitted article, allowing comments to be posted about it.
I know there's products such as vBAdvanved and MkPortal, where you can have threads appearing as news items, but I need a greater degree of flexibility than vBulletin editing tools can offer.
So in the API, what function or functions are used for creating a new thread? And what needs included/required at the top of the PHP files to access it?
Cheers.
