Installed last night on a vb3.07 forum running cmps1.01
Ran into some trouble with the installer, probably due to some changes I have made in order to wrap my forum homes pages with the portal modules, but I wanted to let you know what's up.

One error: "Can not complete change to forumdisplay.php - step 209 as I can not find the text to replace. You will have to manually complete this step.
Looks like there were some errors reverting the files. manual changes (link will open in new window) before continuing."

step 209
in forumdisplay.php, replace:
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('FORUMDISPLAY') . '");');

with:

// === GAS step 208 ===
if ($GAS_setting['rt_template']){

eval('print_output("' . fetch_template($GAS_setting['rt_template']) . '");');

}else{
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('FORUMDISPLAY') . '");');
}
// === /GAS step 209 ===

MINE WAS:
eval('$HTML = "' . fetch_template('FORUMDISPLAY') . '";');
print_portal_output($home, $HTML);

So I did this instead:

// === GAS step 208 ===
if ($GAS_setting['rt_template']){

eval('print_output("' . fetch_template($GAS_setting['rt_template']) . '");');

}else{

eval('$HTML = "' . fetch_template('FORUMDISPLAY') . '";');
print_portal_output($home, $HTML);
}
// === /GAS step 209 ===

Wasn't sure what to do after that, the installer doesn't start up again on its own, so I tried running again, got some 'this is already done, skipping this step' messages, then it appeared to complete the rest of installation. However, at the end, I discovered that it hadn't, and I had to go back and manually do all edits after step 209. Once I did that, all appeared to be as it should be. Thanks for the chuckles in the install file.

Now that I've given you some feedback that I assume you want, I need to pick your brain. It doesn't appear to be displaying the designated article forum as designed. Hoping you/someone can/will help me figure out how to either
a] use this changed code appropriately so I can display the articles forum "wrapped" the same as my others
OR
b] Figure out how to use and call a different showthread template for the forums I am designating as articles. I really don't care if *they* are wrapped, actually, but the regular forums do need to stay as-is, and I am a rank ametuer with conditionals and the rest... everything I do is by trial and error guesswork....
Thanks in advance.
(Voting for this hack for HOTM now!!)
