Hi,

I just installed both vBulletin and vbIndex, as I'm planning on using them both as the backend for my website (old version at http://www.pinkfloydfan.net and new test-version at http://209.51.137.172). I really like what vbIndex does, and I was thinking of using it to power all pages on my website.

So what I'd like to do was to use the header, footer and the left and right blocks in ALL of my pages, and the only thing that would change would be the center "window", where the latest threads and news are. But since vbIndex uses templates so much, I'm pretty lost as to how I should proceed to get what I want. I thought of using require's (as SSI's) as I'm doing right now on pinkfloydfan.net, but for all I tried, it doesn't work. So, could anyone please help me out?

Also, if this is possible, would it be too heavy on my server? I ask this because I think there are many MySQL queries and all, so is this a practical option? Sorry, but I'm really a beginner in both MySQL and PHP...

Thanks a lot and congrats el3m3nt for such a nice hack!!!! I've tried using phpNuke, postNuke and so many other portal scripts but never liked them. With your script I got exactly what I wanted.

Cheers,
Paulo
