Hi all, New to vBulletin and forum creation.
Just created my first forum at n81street.com (Joomla front-end here)
(yes I know, another mobile site

)

I modified (best I could) the fine template posted by unenergizer 'vb_dark'.
I want to have some boxes on the side of the forum with pertinent info, but while I've created the boxes, I can't find any easy way to put the dynamic info in there.

For example, a box that has 'Latest Post', 'Top Post', 'Top Poster', User Info/stats and maybe a simple RSS news feed like http://www.nokia.com/pressrss/rss.xml.

Surely these things are easy to do -I must've missed the boat somehow, I'm comfortable enough with code to plug in some php or html here or there if someone could please point me in the right direction.

Wow, really?

You're all stumped?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
