jarvis - Here is how you would go about using multiple myvbindex's.

First make a copy of your myvbindex.php file and rename it to whatever you would like it to be called. In the copy, look for:

PHP Code:

WHERE thread.forumid=$pollsforum 


Replace that with:

PHP Code:

WHERE thread.forumid=$pollsforum2 


(Just adding a 2 at the end of $pollsforum)

Then look for:

PHP Code:

WHERE thread.forumid=$newsforum 


Replace that with:

PHP Code:

WHERE thread.forumid=$newsforum2 


(Again, just adding a 2 at the end)


Then you will want to run the following queries with phpMyAdmin:

INSERT INTO setting VALUES (NULL,50,'2nd News Forum ID','newsforum2','','The ID number of your news forum.','','31');

INSERT INTO setting VALUES (NULL,50,'2nd Polls Forum ID','pollsforum2','','The ID number of your polls forum.','','32');



That should be everything you need to do to use another myvbindex with different news and poll id's. The News & Poll ID settings will be at the bottom of your myvbindex options in the Admin CP.
Then to add additional copies, you would change the number in the file modifications each time to 3, then 4, and so on. In each of the queries you should run, I marked in bold the parts that will change with each new copy. The first part marked in bold has '2nd News Forum ID'. That can say whatever you would like to distinguish which part of the forum that is for. Then the '2' that is marked in bold should be changed to 3, then 4, and so on. Then the last numbers (31 for the news query, 32 for the poll query) is the part that orders the options. Those numbers should increment for every new option, so the next copy you add should have 33 at the end of the news query, and 34 at the end of the poll query.

Ok, that should be it. I tried to explain all that the best I could, so hopefully it makes sense. If you have any problems or don't understand part of it let me know.
