vBulletin Blog - Latest Blogs on Home Page

This will display the last 5 blogs on the home page blow the What's Going On box. See screenshot for example.

Installation is easy, just import the product and make the template edit.

Update 9/2/07: Removed the template edit from the What's going on box and added it below. With the table structure it makes more sense in this modification. If you have already installed it, apply the template edit again.

RSS_Instructions
This is an alternative method to the above that will display the last 10, this was taken from one of the admins over at vbulletin.com that originally wrote it for the latest threads and modified for this. It's display is not as clean but it will not show blogs that are hidden and I have yet to work that out for the above method.

I know they've been read as some have comments.....

Very nice - Thanx for sharing!
I do have a question though - See the pic attached...
I have the blogs link in our Forums section - I would like to put the Blog Posts table right in the description - but for some reason the variables aren't really showing - I know the modification wasn't made for it - but is there any way you can help me with fixing the code so it does like the attached pic?

Thanx again - Nice share

So this is on the forumhome at the bottom? The product code uses the forumhome_start hook, you can try moving it to forumhome_complete but I am not sure that will work.
