After messing around with this for awhile, I've found that Coranto's newsdat.txt contains a "xTHREADID" when a news item has been checked to be included into the forums, where THREADID is the corresponding thread in vBulletin. If you haven't checked a news item, it is simply "x" without an ID after it.
So, it appears I can't edit Coranto's newsdat.txt since I don't know what vBulletin's thread ID is going to be for about 30 thousand news items. But there has to be a way to somehow "turn on" vBComment's vBulletin thread creation automatically for all posts and then do a Full Rebuild in Coranto - thus forcing every single news item to be created in vBulletin. Anyone have any idea how this could be done?
Also, I noticed that if you modify a news item from the past (say last week, for example), and check the vBComment box, it creates a vBulletin thread with the current date and time instead of the date and time that the news item was actually created. Any ideas how I could force vBulletin to pull the date and time from Coranto so that all news items would be chronologically listed?
