This will add a "This Day In History" box to your Forumhome, fully integrated with your styles so that it doesn't appear as an afterthought. Many of my users love this addition.

Find in your FORUMHOME Template:
{vb:raw ad_location.board_after_forums}

Add this below it:

<!--This Day in History by TheFreeDictionary.com-->
<div id="wgo" class="collapse wgo_block block">
<h2 class="blockhead">This Day in History</h2>
<div class="blockbody formcontrols floatcontainer">
<script language="javascript"
src="http://img.tfd.com/daily/history-top.js?0"></script>
</div></div>
<!--end of This Day in History-->


Of course this can be changed for nearly any addition, it wouldn't have to be "This Day in History"...

You would need to use a feed that was in Arabic. I'll see if I can find one for you.

Dang. I'm not finding it, but then I may not recognize it if I did find it. If you find the feed, we can figure it out so it can display on your site.

Could we add our own history ?

If it has a feed somewhere you should be able to add it... Point me to it and we'll see what we can do.

This would be VERY COOL if we could use it as a "important thread or comment of the day" type of thing using are own rss feeds and sources

What do you mean?

My site is about metallica, so I'd like to use this day in metallica history

Do they have a feed that does that? If they do it would definitely work for that.

Really perfect for my site. But I don't like the 'more' and 'discuss' options since I don't want to redirect off my site.

You would need to find a different feed that didn't attach that... If you find it, we can make it work.
