This mod does not do exactly what you describe. It sounds like you are looking for an RSS-type feed.

This mod alters a forum of choice so that the first post of each thread becomes an article. The articles are pulled from threads, but only to the FORUMDISPLAY of that particular forum. The FORUMDISPLAY by no means really looks like a forum anymore as a result because the text of the recent articles displays there.

Clicking on an article title, clicking a "Read More" link (if you have a preview limit set), clicking the comments link, or clicking to view the last comment will all bring up a page similar to SHOWTHREAD, which displays the article at the top, and comments below. If you wanted to disable comments, you could just remove those links from the NEWSDISPLAY template, and

This hack makes use of forum permissions, because technically the news is still a forum, merely presented differently. So you could disable replies to threads, and set particular usergroups that are permitted to create threads (articles) per forum.
