This hack is not very special for me. I just wanted to create a mainpage on which you can see.. (as a member) everything what u like to see. The idea of the script is similar to the vbHome of nakkid and also a little bit to the vBPortal. I tested all of them.. but i was looking for something better . so i decided to write such a script myself...
Features:
Active threads & newest posts
News & Polls (read from a newsforum and a pollforum)
Quick CP Links on the index-site
Buddies on the index-site
Very easy to customize. Just edit the templates!
Available in english and german!
Summary: On this index-site you can see everything what you as a member would like to see .
Credits

Onlinetodaycode part from Online Today Hack by Mystics.
Pollcode part from vBPortal by wajones.
Note!
I'd really like to get every feedback you guys can give me. Also post bugreports and suggestions to improve this script. If you have installed this hack, pls click on the install button to receive updates thru email. Thank you .

decoder, put the copied code into the new index.php (the vbindex one) where it says in the install instructions. (replace the commented text "// add here the vBulletin code of the original index.php").
How would I go about installing the templates? Add a new Set? or just add them to the default list as .. "home_buddy1"... etc... after that, what files would go in my root directory? (ex. www.microsoft.com)

Add them all to your default template set, and any other template sets you have that you wish to use vBindex with.
In the news bits is there anyway to limit the number of charactors displayed? ie just add dots after a certain number of charactors then perhaps a link to the news forum and actual story?
I read through a bunch of the posts in this thread and noticed that some users had problems with the icons not showing up correctly in for the News items on index.php (vbIndex).
I had the same problem. I downloaded the hack (v1.3) a couple days ago and am just installing it. I don't think the newsbit template has been updated with the proper code in the ZIP file.
newsbit template that comes with vbIndex 1.3 contains:
I noticed that whenever I use home.php, my records (Most users ever online and most users ever online on a day) are reset to show only the number for that same day. Is there any way to change this?
