Dont know how much of a hack this is:

Heres what I need:

Say u have 2 Forums

1. Music
2. Arcade

When someone clicks on Music, it takes you to a whole bunch of posts, blah blah.

However, when you click on Arcade, instead of it taking u to forumdisplay.php (and showing posts), i wanted it to take me straight to proarcade.

Can this be done and how????

Any help is appreciated....thanx

Peace

What you can do, without hacking, is a neat little trick:

1. Edit the forum you want as your link, and change its title to:

</a><a href="http://www.vbulletin.org">Hello</a>

Replacing that URL with the URL you want it to go to

U ARE THE F'ING MAN.......that is off the HOOK, thank you sooo much......WOOOOOOHOOOOOOOO

Not to sure what you mean, but try:

</a><a href="http://www.vbulletin.org">Hello

[nymyth]

You have made a mistake in the forum title, and added an extra "> in there somewhere. Check it.

@Steve - Why have you got:

</a><a href="http://www.vbulletin.org">Hello</a>

It should be:

<a href="http://www.vbulletin.org">Hello</a>

Because if you have normal text in the title, it outputs as

<a href="forumdisplay.php?forumdid=4">title</a>

if you want to override that, you stop the tag from adding that forumdisplay link in:

<a href="forumdisplay.php?forumdid=4"></a><a href="url">title</a>

See?

That is wrong...

If you enter a straight "<a href="url"></a>" tag, it will overwrite the "forumdisplay.php?forumid=$forumid"
