RS25com - The links are controlled by vBcode, so if you removed the target="_blank" from the coding it would have any links posted on your forum open in the same window. Your best bet would probably be to create a new vB code to use for links on your homepage. Or, if you don't mind the links opening in the same window, you should be able to open your admin/functions.php file and look for:
PHP Code:
return "<a href=\"$righturl\" target=\"_blank\">".str_replace('\"', '"', $hyperlink)."</a>";
Remove the
target=\"_blank\" from that code. I haven't tested that but it should work.
dreamer - Well you can see somewhat of a vB3 version of the hack running on my site (just upgraded a couple of days ago

). There is a LOT that is customized for my site at the moment and I still have some options (like the polls) that need to be added back. I've been extremely busy lately and haven't had much time to work on hacks, or a lot of other things I would like to do. I'm sure I'll have a version ready to release by the time vB3 RC is released though.
