This really isn't a hack but something else to add to your main forum page.

In index.php right before

eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate('forumhome')."\");" );

put

$today = vbdate("F jS,Y",time());

(change the dateformat to however you have yours set up, ie:
m-d-y or as I have it above.

Then in the forumhome template

put

<smallfont>Today is: <b>$today</b></smallfont>

wherever in the forumhome template you would like to put this.

Did you put the line

<smallfont>Today is: <b>$today</b></smallfont>

into your forumhome template?

Thanx Parker Clack, nice little addition for the members, very easy mod and can generally go any place you'd like it.

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