Category on it's own page

[kerrghann]

I'd like to somehow make a category on it's own page.

To clarify, instead of the category being listed in the main forum.php page, I'd like to instead create a custom php page (we'll call it custom.php) create a template for it called custom_page, and essentially have a blank vbulletin page that mimics my forum's style. I'd then link to this page on my navbar. On the custom page, I'd somehow put my forum category on it.

I guess what I'm asking is: is there a way to edit the custom_page template to only put the category of my choice in it?

I'm sorry if this is confusing, I'm actually quite sure I'm not making the best of sense.

While I haven't tried this, off the top of my head I think it would be feasible. I am thinking you would have to set the "Posting Options" option "Forum is Active" to "No" and then provide a link to the category you want on its own page somewhere on your home page. You wouldn't have to create a custom page at all.

Hmm. That could work.

I'd really need it on it's own template though as I'd like to have a shout box at the top of that category only and different shoutboxes on different category pages.
