There Article wouldn't seem fit if multiple users(Staff) will make multiple articles, as there script indentifies the article by date, so if 2 staff members posted at the same time, then what?

Also why do all these final fantasy site now use similar color schemse to Final Fantasy Republic

Yes and there site looks very nice, especially the news, you can do this same thing with vBulletin may I add, even do there way of showing headlines, and then linking to the actual news. You can do this with vBulletin, and achieve THE EXACT detail.

Since you can program, I can help you out with how it would work to get you started.

Make a new file called news.php all it will do is pull the thread title, date (and convert the date) and pull certain ammount of text of the post) then link to say news.php?article=id id being the same id as the thread, then in the code you would pull the info from the database of the threadid and post. Voila!

Very Easy :bunny:
