Very similar to vB News CMS for 3.5, but a some of the code was rewritten. This now works with BBCode - (This includes line breaks, URLs, smilies, etc.). I've removed several lines and taken out have removed the dual option for SQL 4.1 or higher as a lot of people are still on the lower MySQL
What does this do? It allows you to take your news from your news forums (up to 9 news forums) and display them in a category-style fashion with the ability to add new content, reply to the original story, send to a friend, and print.
This works only for vbulletin 3.6.0 or higher.
There is a 3.7.x version here
Install/Upgrade Instructions
Located in the zipped readme.txt file.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the forumid?
The forumid is the id of the forum you have created. Each forum has its own unique number assigned to it. When you click on a forum link you can see a number that is assigned to it. This will show up in the URL of the page you are browsing. Another way of seeing the forumid is to go to your admin control panel => Forums & Moderators => Forum Manager => Click on [Expand All] and then move your mouse over (hover) any of the forums you've created. Your status bar (bottom of screen) should display your forumid (number at the end of the link/url).
Changes
V. 1.2a Added security for admins
V. 1.2 Added support for Who's Online
Things in consideration for future releases
1) Menu system that dynamically displays a menu based on forum choices.
Known Bugs/Issues:
1) - When you go to the page directly, the page acts as a normal page - however, if you click refresh on the page, the refresh stalls. I don't understand why this occurs.
