I am running vBulletin v2.2.0, and would like to use vbulletin as for my front page news, the way it is being done on this web site, since it would be a lot more convienent than using the external cgi news script that I'm currently using.

What hacks do I need to accomplish this?

Thanks,
Pahbi

Hi!

You'll probably be better off downloading 2.21 before adding any hacks. There are some necessary fixes.

If you can't wait to hack, there are some news.php type hacks that will suit you for a front page news type site. Just do a search on news etc... There are a couple.

Good Day! :D

I'm in no real rush to install the hack, I'm just curious as to *WHICH* hack is being used on the front page of vbulletin.org?

Hi Pabbi,

I don't have the answer for the front page of vB. org. But I did remember the name of a php news script.

I believe they are calling it Pluhnews. Might take a look at this for your site. May work for you.

The front page of vBulletin.org was custom-written and has not been released.

For news type scripts you might check out vBPortal at http://www.phpportals.com/

Ahhhh Ok.

Well hurry up and release it. :eek:

Thats one thing I hate about all of the "forum software hacking" sites that are out there. They all make custom hacks for their site and dont want to release them. Thats all I am interested in is the ones on this site not the ones that everyone is posting :(

Techtalk> But the results are the same.

yes!

hurry up and release it!

I love the news thing that vBulletin.org is running.

it's sweet!
