This will be able to run alongside ANYTHING

it doesn't depend on any external files.

This only uses basic Vbulletin functions and it's own built in ones. I'm willing to work with any of the portal developers on integration. Anything to make things easier on everybody

I'll try to get a beta release together for you guys sometime this weekend. I'm trying to get caught up on things. I've been getting killer placement in google so I'm working hard on covering some FAQ type things. I'll have to figure something out for dynamically making categories.

Currently the system is limited to 10 pages and holds each page in it's own column. This seems to be the most efficient way of doing things. It IS a limitation though.

It appears that you have categories of articles.
How many categories can your system accomodate?

If there are a large number of categories and a large number of articles contained in them...is there a way to limit the number of articles displayed as links? With perhaps a "more" to display all?

My concern is that the number of categories and the number of articles within each category will grow too large to display in a tidy manner.

Currently I have to put a query in for each category. It would be pretty easy to make several pages of categories, but what I'm optioning to do is have 1 setup for "articles" 1 set up for "reviews" and probably another seperate one setup for tips. That is the route I'm planning on taking instead. It just means duplicating templates.

The category setup by default will be set for 5, but if you duplicate the queries and add templates you can do as many as you could ever want. Currently I don't know what route I'm taking for handling many categories.

so 10 pages per category or 10 pages total?

cant wait either way!

10 pages per article

AND unlimited number of articles per category.

Also started putting a Recent Topics section together for forum promotion... I'm thinking about putting it ABOVE the articles by default, but this is of course something you guys can modify through templates.

Currently for my purposes I don't grab the who posted last and that kind of thing that alot of the other Recent topics hacks have. I'm trying to trim data wherever possible to optimize everything for high capacity sites and not KILL my server when I do above 100k pageviews in a day.

Sounds even better!

We get about 60k hits a day so i'm glad there isn't going to be all of the other junk that's not needed...

Can't wait for this! (as you can tell lol)

I'm hoping that one of the 3 things I'm posting tonight will draw in enough traffic to put the system to a major test.

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