"Asking coders/designers about vBulletin 4.0 and their releases.

Asking them to upgrade their work while vBulletin 4.0 is still in Beta, and probably before the production version of vBulletin 4.0 has been released for some time, only annoys people and will probably not make them release their work on vBulletin 4.0 any sooner. We therefor request not to ask such questions for now in the 3.x release forums. Please keep an eye on the 4.0 release forums to see if a modfication or style is available on vBulletin 4.0."

I have it working very nicely here:
http://cellphoneforums.net/cell-phone-reviews/

There was a bit of customization of the templates to get it to display this way.

Is it possible to change the original name "Article" to something else? Lets say "Links"? So that it will say...Search Links.....Show Links...Post new Link? I will really appreciate any help on this!!

Thanks!!

I would like to use af_firstpost for threads that use the prefix, in my case, 'news'. Does anyone have any insight on how this could be done?

Not really. Why are you wanting it changed? Maybe there's another way to achieve the same result.
