Would the output be able to be done through vb templates? I would then use your vb styles correct? Like instead of using the echo to do the output make it do an eval("\$variable = \"".gettemplate($templatename)."\";");

would that work?

With a little tweaking 1.5 can do this -> www.3dNewz.com

that is nice, are you willing to tell what you did to make it look like that?

Sorry, it was a lot of tweaking here and there. Some of the stuff I can't even remember how to do it. Some of the things I have added though are in this thread around pages 15 - 20 I think that allows you to get multiple news headlines on the same page.

Ok is there a reason my smilies don't show up? I have my smilies path set to the full path but nothing. Anyone else have probs with smilies not showing?

I think we talked about this at around page 18 or so. Go 3 or 4 pages in both directions of page 18 and I think that's were we were talking about something like this.

ok thank you

Ok this is already in the hack, but my smilies still don't show up, the links are good just not the smilies. I have the script in the forums directory and I am php including it in a file that is outside of the forums directory. Any ideas why my smilies aren't showing up. It really isn't a big deal cause I could just go with out smilies. So if know one knows why that's fine.

I love this script, but it is very hard on a large site's performance (40k+ visitors/day). We have dual servers running our vBulletin and MySQL set for max_connections of 1000, but it still caused our server to crash.

I would like to use cron to run it once a day and then SSI the results to the homepage. Any suggestions? Extra credit if anyone knows how to modify it to return the top most active threads from the previous day. That would make the most compelling content appear on the homepage I believe. Many thanks.
