Rendering a specific Forum

[sleepygiant]

Hi There,
I was wondering if there is a way inside of a style to specify a specific forumid to render.

Thanks

Not sure what you mean - do you want a condition so that you can display something different depending on the forumid? If so it would be:

<vb:if condition="$GLOBALS['forumid'] == X">
// something for forum X only
</vb:if>

Hi,
Close. Here's some sudo-code for what i'd like to do

{vb: raw render_forumid=7}
would display the forum that usually shows on the home page.

I'm not sure what you mean by "the forum that displays on the home page". But I'm pretty sure what you're asking isn't easy - you'd have to have a plugin or php code somewhere to create the string you want, which would probably need to include a lot of the code from forumdisplay.php.

Thanks kh. I know it's very vauge, but I think I agree: the best way to accomplish this is to write a plugin.

Are you planning on writing one? I had an idea about that (but like most of my ideas, nothing ever happened with it).
