The Arcive of Official vBulletin Modifications Site.

A friend and I decided to take our mundane vBulletin board and turn it into a full-fledged website, reminiscent of entertainment blogs like Joystiq and Joblo, but heavily integrated with the forum. We're using vBulletin Advanced as a platform for our main page, and our goal is to present a "megablog" that covers different topics, which would go under different news pages, similar to many other news sites that you've seen.

We have a vBadvanced front and child pages and are looking for a way to integrate the news threads and blog posts from our forum to our main page. If we could create a user group (like, reporter) that gets an option to post to the main page or not would be best. More specifically, if we're looking to have the newest posts to the main page, then topic specific pages must include an option for customization on those pages. Say, checkboxes which will allow the user or blogger with the ability to post that specific post/blog to the main pages.

Aside from that, I love the Yahoo/AIM/MSN icons in the postbits. I have a lot of gamers at my site, and I'm wondering if there's a way to add Xbox Live/PlayStation Network/Wii Friend Code icons to the postbit with similar functions.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
