View Full Version : vBIndex mod request - cycle news posts

I posted this in the official vBIndex thread, but figured I'd officially request it here. :)

I run vBI on three sites and I love it - by far the best portal software of ANY forum sw out there.

I use a standard post for my front page to show the news, in a hidden forum. I assume a lot of people do it this way. On http://www.club3g.com I have a 'Car of the Month' feature that's pretty static - I just edit the post once a month and I'm golden.

However on http://www.sevenstring.org, I use it for Artist Interviews and Album Reviews. I have a hidden Forum that contains one sticky post that I use for the news. Thing is, I have almost ten reviews/interviews and they're all pretty relevant. I'd LOVE a way to randomize which post gets shown on the front page, so it cycles between, say, all of the posts in a specified forum.

Is this something doable? Thanks!

Shameless bump. :)
