You would need to create a "Recently LIked" forum block. I think I'd start by copying includes/block/newpost.php to a new name, then modify it to find "liked" posts. You would also need to add a row to the blocktype table. There may be other things that need to be added to the database, I'm not sure offhand.

Dbtech thanks mod comes with that option already and it looks like this is what they are using

I mean rather than being based there "thank you"
Will "Recent Posts"
If you follow me

Do you need to rename it from thank you to Recent posts. Not sure if this is what you mean

You need a recent posts block on your home page correct? That is actually a built in feature in vBulletin 4. Here's how you get it on your page:

1. Login to your AdminCP
2. Scroll down and find "vBulletin CMS" and click on the "Widgets" link.
3. If you installed default data when you installed vBulletin you will see a list of widgets that are already there and created, the "Recent Forum Posts" widget would be what you are looking for. You can click the "Go" button next to the drop down that will most likely show "Edit" and change the text that will appear at the top of the block. Then you can click the "Configure" link to set what forums you want the posts to come out of and a few other things.
4. If you did not install the default data you can create a widget by scrolling to the bottom on that page and clicking the "Create New Widget" button.
5. For the "Widget Type" choose "Recent Posts"
6. Give the widget a Title, this title will show at the top of the widget and be a header for it.
7. Now refer back to the left side menu and find "vBulletin CMS" and then click on the "Layout Manager" link.
8. Choose the layout you are using on your site and click the "Go" button next to the drop down to edit it. When it opens find the new block you created on the left, click the title of it and then click the > button to place it in the layout. From there you can drag it to where ever you want it on your site.
