I have installed the vb home hack but now my page is all warped. The button at the top are just x's and the center and the right column have nothing going on. What is the next step for me to get things going?

Check the path to the images, and see what it says 'hover over an image and right click > properties' - you will see what it is and what it actually should be, change the path. You could also just edit the home page template: home_header and set the path manually, this is what I did to get them to work without spending too much time on it. Once the header buttons are correct, the rest will fall in place too probably.

I can find all the properties and files and it seem like the path is what it say in the properties. What else can I do? THe button just have text and then an x and they look awful.

is there a way to make it so that when i post articles with [img] tags or attachments that they will automatically show up and not just the link? please help, how do i do this? also my headers and footers are sort of messedup looking and not aligning right, any ideas? not bad though only some stuff isnt aligning, this is weird cause under vb they look fine, but not under vbhome, whats wrong?

HOW DO I DO THIS! The Instructions said to edit Admin/forum/function.php or something and its not THERE! Is that First Post with the attachment the wrong zip? Can someone PLEASE help

I got it now, how do I do step 4, do I need to upload an edited file?
Im stuck... :-/


EDIT:

I skipped step 4, did EVERYTHING else and www.rec0n.com/index.php is broken(where is the user info for the database thing located?) , and I don't see any thing in Control Panel Home called "vbHome Page"

*BUMP*

Have you tried asking for help on Teck's support forums?

You need to do step 4.

Goto your Admin Control Panel, go to the Replacements Link at the bottom of the Menu, and click Add.

And enter the following:

Code to find: {imageshome}
Code to insert: forums/images

(change forums to what ever your forums directory is called)

--

The vbHome control panel part is under the:
Options -> vBulletin Options
Its listed in the link list as: [Front Page]

Section, and is called: Front Page

--

I have copy'n'pasted the installation section of the readmefirst.html page, which is included in the zip file, you need to do all the installation in the order specified and then upload the relevent files, and run the vbhlinstall.php

Tell us if this helps?

====
STEP 1
Open template.php file (located in /admin/forum folder) and perform the code change listed below.
FIND:
$only['getinfo'] = 'User Info Display';
BELOW, ADD:
$only['home'] = 'Home Page';

Save the file.

STEP 2
Open newthread.php file (located in /forum folder) and perform the code change listed below.
FIND:
$postid=$DB_site->insert_id();
BELOW, ADD:
if (in_array($foruminfo['forumid'], explode(',', $articleforum))) {
$DB_site->query("UPDATE thread SET articleid=$postid WHERE threadid=$threadid");
}

Save the file.

STEP 3
Open vbHome (lite) global.php file and change the default admin path:
$adminpath = 'forum/admin';

to your actual admin path, for example:
$adminpath = 'board/admin';

Save the file.
STEP 4
Open vBulletin Admin Control Panel and a new {imageshome} replacement variable to your full website URL, like that:
Replacements > Add

and enter the following information:REPLACEMENT SET
(your choice here)
CODE TO FIND
{imageshome}
CODE TO INSERT
forum/images

Change the code to insert to match your forum location. Save the replacement variable.

STEP 5
Still in your vBulletin Admin Control Panel, create a new forum, called Web Site News (or whatever is more appropriate for your site).
STEP 6
Upload all files onto your folder. The following order is recommended:

[ROOT] - upload here your vbHome (lite) index.php, backend.php and global.php files
---[FORUM] - upload here your vbHome (lite) printarticle.php and vBulletin newthread.php files
------[ADMIN] - upload here your vbHome (lite) vbhlinstall.php and vBulletin template.php files
------[IMAGES] - upload here your arrow.gif, article.gif, articleemail.gif and articleprint.gif files
---------[POLLS] - upload here your bar.gif, bar-bk.gif, bar-l.gif and bar-r.gif files
FINAL STEP
Run the vbHome (lite) vbhlinstall.php script installer.
It will update the database with all needed settings to work together with your vBulletin forum.
