Is there anyway to get the widgets from the content management system to display in the forums templates? I would like to display the calendar, polls and recent posts on my forum pages but cannot figure out how to do it. I see there is a forum blocks manager but it does not have a calendar or polls in there. If you cannot display the widgets is there plugins for the forums blocks manager to display the polls and calendar?

Any help is appreciated.

I believe there is an article in the vB4 Articles forum that explains how to do what you want.

Also, there are many forum blocks and widgets released in the vB4 Mods area. I'd suggest taking a look in there and seeing if you can find what you want.

Thanks for the response. Do u happen to have a link to that article because I have spent alot of time coming up with nothing? I will check out the vb4 mods area as well.

Doing a search for "widget" in "Articles" "Titles Only" brings it right up - Use vBCms Widget everywhere

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