Hi all...

Great hack, I'm currently customizing and then I will create a new custom skin from the ground up for a new site I'm creating...

Anyways, I'd like to know how I would be able to do something like this:

On the custom boxes, I'd have a link for, oh say, reviews. The link would be - When clicked, I'd like the news part to be replaced by a block that looks like a news post, but has customizable content.

Anyone know how to do this?

Thanks,
Nate

Can somebody please advise me how I can display the attachments in the News section...

I attached an small image icon in the thread, and I want the news to pull the attachments also...

Hello, I have spent a large part of the last 48 hours trying to install this index and am still unable to use it. My problem lies in not having a /forum/ directory, and so vbindex.php is in the same directory as index.php and they conflict. What is the simplest way to separate the two so that each script runs correctly and the paths are all correct?

You have to remember you can have only one "index.php" file in one area. I have vBindex running in the same spot as VBull is.

Before you install vBindex your link to your site would be like... http://www.yoursite.org/index.php

Once vBindex is installed by default you would access the portal page via this...
http://www.yoursite.org/vbindex.php

Now what I have done for my site to make the portal the first page members see is the following...

• login to admincp, vBulletin Options, scroll down the list and select Forums Home Page Options. Change the Script Name for Forum Home Page(by default its Index) So for this example we'll change it to forum.

• Via your ftp change VBulletin's "index.php" to "forum.php"

• Via your ftp change vBindex "vbindex.php" to "index.php"

Now when you login to your site via http://www.yoursite.org/index.php you will be taken to the portal page. To directly access the forums the link would be http://www.yoursite.org/forum.php

vBindex also adds a link to the nav bar to the forums. I hope that helps.

thats exactly how you do it.

It works perfectly, thank-you both so much for your prompt and considerate support...

I just installed it

http://www.planetscifi.net/vbforums/vbindex.php

but is there anyway to make the boxes on the left streach out so that they look better and the middle a bit smaller?

also if a user is lookin at the vbindex it says they are looking at an unknown location.. is there anway to fix this?

Cheers.

JC

I just installed it and it seems to be working fine and all, but how can I make it so that you don't have to login to view vbindex.php?
