I have to say this is the best, easiest, fastest, most efficient (and every other-est) way to create extra pages with the VB styles! It was so easy to set up and I found that it was just as easy as the rest of the board to customize. All of my styles worked right from the start and guests can view pages without any problems!

Here is a link to my site. The links 'Written Works', 'Art Gallery', Project Surreal Manga', and 'Anime Convention Gallery' are the custom pages. I know there's not much on them (the Anime Gallery is the only one with content), but I even found a way to display different stuff in the side columns (using the side column hack) and the VB_AREA function. It's a simple code that you can add to the php pages you have to upload.

Where is says in the php file:
define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'yourscript');

Below that add:
define('VB_AREA', 'test');

where 'test' is the area you want it to be named. keep it simple. I used simple words like art and manga. then when you make the links in your side columns, you can have separate links for your forums, then separate links for the custom pages:

<if condition="VB_AREA == test">
Links for your test page
</if>
<if condition="VB_AREA == VBA_PORTAL">
Separate links if you have VBAdvance portal
</if>
<if condition="VB_AREA == Forum">
regular links for the forum.
</if>

And this will work in the navbar too! I haven't found a place where the VB_AREA function doesn't work. I thought it would just be something cool to add so that for all the work you go through to make the custom pages, you can have custom links too!
