I have been looking in the forums here for a few days now... looking to see what modifications exist that may suit my needs. Its difficult to get a feel for this when you are not a customer of vB yet though as so many screenshots are hidden.

I have found the following modifications:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=43310
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=21875

Can someone tell me if one of those will do what I want? Again, this is:

One one web page at my site, take the titles from the last X posts from forum 1, and display on a section of the page. In another section of the page, post the last X posts from forums, 2, 3, and 4 combined, etc. etc. Is that the intended use of one of the mods I have shown above?

I also want to display a mini calendar on a page at my site, and filter to show the titles for the next 5 events from a specific calendar (assuming vB3)

Is Syndication possible at a forum level rather than the entire board?

Also, the "Service Request" forum has no posts in it... is this because it is new, or just not used, or I can't see them because I am not a customer? I will likely need a small code or two made for me...

I understand that vB3 hacks are not supported yet, but just to get an idea, how many of you are getting your hacks ready for vB3?

Just trying to make a decision here, and before I pay out the $, I want to be sure that this will provide me with what I need.

Thanks in advance!

there are already vb3 hacks released at vbulletin.nl

and one is a news script and part of that news script could be used to develop the latest topics as it generates it on the fourm page

i belive you cannot see service reuqests as your not a member

i can honestly tell you that IMO there is no better forum system out there today. vb3 is very powerfull and i know many hackers who have been geared up for vb3 for a long and and they are waiting for the gates to open
