What I'd like to do is to be able to show how many comments have been been made in a selected thread on the review page using vBExternal as "Comments (#)


Example:
Review page

Comment thread

You can do a blog-like comment system with a modified style. Check out the posts on this page (created with vbExternal). You'll see a comment count. Click on the headline or the comment links and you'll go to the "article" with comments, just like you'd see in a blog. It's actually just a customized style applied to those "forums" that I want to appear that way. In my case, I use it for news.
