What modifications are used in Grindtimenow.com

[hyperviperx99]

I want to know what modifications were used in http://www.grindtimenow.com

How do I create the "featured media" in their homepage?

How do I create the MP3 player they have?

And how do I add the Share to Facebook or Twitter feature that they have?

Please let me know. Thanks

Why not search through the mods on here to create a unique community for yourself? There is every possibility they have created there own mods or paid somebody to create mods for them that will not be listed here on VB.org.

My advise to you would be to find mods here on VB.org that you think would suit your forums needs and try adding them, I would only add one mod per day so as to make sure there are no conflicts or problems. Add too many mods at once and you could possibly screw your forum.

Always make a backup of your forum before adding a new mod so you can quickly and painlessly revert should any problems arise.

I never really understood these types of threads...

"What mod are they using here?" or "How did they do this?"

Have you tried asking THEM?

Maybe the OP thinks there is an easy way to tell, like viewing a style sheet type page that would show all mods.

Looks like this slideshow in the featured media:
http://www.scriptiny.com/2008/12/javascript-slideshow/

The mp3 player is more than likely a free script you can view the source for more info or a hint to the script name in the css or js etc. What you want to do is search here and then do some searching of your own then customize your cms to your liking .

And guys, that's why the OP posted... for us to help.. silly rabbits!

Did you see which template it was under? The template name is the place you put it.
