i made the post AFTER i installed the hack. and number 2 is the ID for the news forums

Did the install file run correctly? I'm assuming it did since it created the templates and such... The only other thing it could be is you didn't make the right changes to newthread.php and newreply.php. Double check that you made the 2 changes in each of those files, upload them again, and make another news post. There's no reason that shouldn't work, but if it doens't let me know and we'll get the problem solved. :)

i have done it correctly but what is the problem?

If it's not showing up something had to have been missed... If you have phpMyAdmin, you can log into there and check your "post" table to make sure it has a column called "isnews" (it should be the last one in the post table). There's really not a reason that shouldn't be there since it's the first step in the installer, but it wouldn't hurt to double check that it's there.
Could you email me (brian@plurplanet.com) with your newthread.php and newreply.php files so I can have a look at them?

email sent with the two files.

Ok, I looked over those files and both of them were modified correctly. Do you have phpMyAdmin where you could check to make sure the "isnews" column is there? I don't see a reason it wouldn't be if the installer ran correctly, but then again I don't really see a reason the news wouldn't be working. You could also try re-uploading your newreply & newthread files and then try making another news post.
If it's still not working, I could take a look at things for you if you would like to make a temporary account on your forums and give me access to your admin pages. Of course I understand if you don't want to give some stranger access to your admin pages, but it would be easier to locate the problem if I could look through the pages.

according to my phpmyadmin, its has the table in it
edituserid int(10) UNSIGNED No 0 Change Drop Primary Index Unique Fulltext
editdate int(10) UNSIGNED No 0 Change Drop Primary Index Unique Fulltext
isnews char(1) No N

its still not working but you need to go on aim to chat with me

my aim is DigiPowerX

Ok, I may have found the problem... What do you have your "News Posts Maximum" set to? If it's set to 0 try changing it to something else. That was a bug in v1.0 that I thought I had fixed, but apparently I missed it. I just tried it on my personal site and when I set that to 0 the news didn't appear.

Everything work great so far, I m curious which replacements in which vbmyindex template to change the highlight on "today date" on calendar at vbmyindex.php? I want to increase the color since my background color is dark and I cannot see any highlight at all. Thanks
