Okay I tried looking for one that meet my requirements but couldn't find one.

I am wanting a mod that has three columns, 1st column for Lastes news which would be on the left, middle column for a paypal donate button, and the 3rd or right column for lastest announcements.

Ever since using IPB I have been wanting a mod like this for vBulletin for sometime but nobody has created one kinda similar.

If you want a demo of what one looks like just tell me and I will pm you a link.

I don't think this mod would be too hard to create. Only if I knew how to code php or what code you guys use to make vbulletin mods then I could do it lol.

Anyone?

Have you tried writing it yourself? You basically have two queries - one to grab the lastest news and one to grab the latest announcements. Just put it through a while loop to spit out the template bits and then eval the main template to spit out the table. You can probably just find an existing modification that does something like this and modify it for your own needs.

I had never coded in php or worked with mysql queries either until I got vbulletin. Then I realized that no modification was exactly how I wanted it and so I learned to modify them to suite my needs. I've since learned to actually write my own modifications and to optimize a lot of the code I had originally installed that was written by someone else. You start with the small things. Take a look at a modification that spits out a 'Lastest x threads' and think about what you need to do to get it to do what *you* want. In that case, probably add in a Where clause so it only grabs threads from one forum. You get that to work. Then you figure out how to put it into a table with three columns instead of a table with just one column. You take steps.

Well Im not really looking for/to make a mod that gets the latest news and announcements from a forum id but one that I can edit. I will show you a example of what Im looking for in a minute I need to install it on a ipb board first lol.

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