yeah, see, that's not about to work. a) it's designed for providing rss feeds from your forum, b) that javascript that I did consider using only works with vbulletin javascript feeds, and is designed for use on other sites. The podcasts links are offsite resources, unless I'm reading this wrong I'm not seeing how this works. In any case, I got it working regardless, with a different system. I still need help with announcements and featured threads though (I'm playing with the Featured Threads plugin now, but I'm gonna have to change some code for it to work), if anyone has any ideas they could lend (seriously, anyone at all).
