Hi. How do I add a link to a forum section like this forum has in there vendors section?

Can anyone give me any direction? Am I able to do this through my vbulletin control panel? If so, can I have some step by baby step directions?

There's no version number in the footer, but judging by how the postbit and regster pages look, I'll assume you're on 2.2.9 - 2.3.2. I coulda swore I had seen a hack that does just this, but now I can't find it...

Well, another easy way to do it is this:
For the title of a new forum, use this code:</a><a href="http://linkto.your/page.here">Text to show as title</a><a href="#">That code should completely prevent unclosed tags, and still make your "new forum" be a link.

You might wanna close the forum to new posts though. Leaving it open is just asking for someone to figure out the forumid and sneak in and post. :)




Edit: Oh, and could a mod move this to one of the hacking forums? I don't think this thread belongs here anymore. :)
