This hack lets you make any page you want have the first post of your x amount of threads in the forum you choose, which is bassicaly a news feed. What makes mine different from any others is first its alone and not attached to anythign else.

2nd you can do it on any page that calls the global page, including non vb pages.

3rd it uses a single template that allows you to show anything in your postbit for each of the threads an example is to output your news using your default postbit for your threads, which is similar to what the one that is default does.

I hope you guys find it useful and also i want to point out theh template included should be changed. It uses the postbit that is default to vb, and shows all the details of a normal post including the links to profile and all that stuff its merely of an example at what it can do. I also plan to update this in the uture to contain coments type of links and numbers to make it more like a news displayer.

Anyways i hope it works well. for all of you

For a demo board here is one of my sites i have installed it on.

it shows the first post of every thread in a specific forum. Just like news hacks do. Thats because it is a news hack. You can limit the totla threads shown as well.

Very useful for making your news showwn on your webiste pages.

as with most betas this was no exception, i messed up a ton of things. Here is the fix for the bugs as well as a minor update of a few otehr things.

just download the new files, and then run the update script in the newsinstall.php file. THen recopy the functions.php text. then recopy the new text for the news getting process. Final step is to set the max number of characters before it cuts off the text via the adminpanel.

no, its made mainly for non vb pages, to display the "News" which can be non site related but on the fourms in a thread itself.
