Done. Thank you.

Thanks for emailing the file. I put in my news type inside fps_external.php, but I still get the parse error on line 1 @ first post. Any ideas? The only change I did to fps_external.php is add the following at line 425:

PHP Code:

// grOOvy
else if ($vbulletin->GPC['type'] == 'NEWS')
{ 

    // setup the board title
    if (empty($title))
    { // just show board title
        $rss_title = clean_text($vboptions['bbtitle'], $strip_bbcode, $strip_html, $post_length, false, false);
    }
    else
    { // show board title plus selection
    $rss_title = clean_text($vboptions['bbtitle'] . " - $title", $strip_bbcode, $strip_html, $post_length, false, false);
    }

      // echo "Forum Homepage: " . $vboptions[bburl] . "<br>";
      // echo "Site Homepage: " . $vboptions[homeurl] . "<br>";
      // clean_text($vboptions['description'], $strip_bbcode, $strip_html, $post_length, true, $parse_bbcode);
      // Calculate the time zone difference between GMT
      $tz = vbdate('O', TIMENOW);
      if ($tz == '+0000')
      {
        $tz = 'Z';
      }
      else
      {
        $tz = substr($tz, 0, 3) . ':' . substr($tz, 3, 2);
      }

    $i = 0;

    if (!empty($threadcache))
    {
        foreach ($threadcache AS $thread)
        {
             $fp = &$bbuserinfo['forumpermissions']["$forumid"];
     
          // echo "<br><br> --- NEWS PARSED --- <br><br>";
          echo "<table width='100%' border='0' cellspacing='1' align='left' id='table1'><tr><td style='border-style: dotted; border-width: 1px' bordercolor='#C0C0C0'><font size='3' face='Arial'><b>" . clean_text($thread[title], false, $strip_html, "full", false, false) . "</b></font></td></tr></table><br>";
          // Calculate the time zone difference between GMT
          $tz = vbdate('O', $thread[$datefield]);
          if ($tz == '+0000')
          {
            $tz = 'Z';
          }
          else
          {
            $tz = substr($tz, 0, 3) . ':' . substr($tz, 3, 2);
          }
          echo "<br><font color='#C0C0C0'>Posted on " . vbdate('Y-m-d\TH:i:s', $thread[$datefield]) . " by ";
          echo "<i>" . clean_text($thread[postusername], false, $strip_html, "full", false, false) . "</i></font><br>";
          echo "<a href='" . $vboptions[bburl] . "/showthread.php?t=" . $thread[threadid] . "'>Comments</a><br><br><br>";
          // echo parse_bbcode2(clean_text($thread[pagetext], $strip_bbcode, $strip_html, $post_length, false, $parse_bbcode),false,true,false,true) . "<br><br><br><br><br>";
          echo parse_bbcode2($thread[pagetext],false,true,false,true) . "<br><br><br><br><br>";
        }
    }

} 


I then call it on my main page, however receive the following error:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING in /external.php?type=news&forumids=29&postlen=full&qt y=5&html=yes&bbcode=no1 on line 1
