How hard would this be to add additional boxes within the index file to accomodate:

- Links
- Afilliates
- etc.

If you'll refer to posts 194 & 196 in this thread, there are 2 different explanations on how to do that. Either of those ways will work and should be pretty simple.

Can I just embed the html code within the PHP file? Are the templates that are called a fixed width so that I could emulate the size with respect to what is being drawn by myvbindex?

All the "boxes" are tables that have their width set to 100%, which are nested in a table cell with a with of 165. If you look in the index template for that table cell you can change the width there and that will affect all the boxes.

I was also thinking how nice it might be to have multiple instances of myvbindex running that could link multiple news areas of a site while pulling the articles from multiple forums.

For example, main page would show general news from forum xx, but there would be a link box on the side that held different interest areas like PC Games, MAC, etc. These links would pull up another instance of myvbindex that pull articles from the related forum.

Am I just a dreamer? :surprised: .

That wouldn't be too hard to do... Would you want to have a seperate section with all the options in the admin CP for each, or use the same admin options for all of them and just different news forum id's?
