The main thing I have been trying to accomplish using the Vbulletin cms seems like it should be simple and included but after spending days trying I have yet to find a solution. All I want to do is show forum posts on the main page without having to promote them to an article. To me it makes no sense to have a thread copied to another section when the post or thread itself can be displayed just like Vbadvanced has always done it.

I figured an easy way of accomplishing this would be to create a recent threads or recent posts widget. The problem I am having with this is that it does not show the entire post. Is there a way to increase the amount of preview test?

I am also open to any other methods of getting a forum post to display nicely in the main section of the cms without having it promoted into an article.

Thanks

Guys, I cannot understand how nobody else has this issue. It just send so obvious that adding some good forum threads to the home page would be a good thing. The only way to do this currently is to use minimal sidebar widgets or to promote a thread. These are both really inefficient ways of doing this.
I just cannot believe that the best forum script in the world does not even have a basic feature to display a post in the primary content area.

Is there anyone here who can help me with this?
