    i think you might have to use some form of RSS feed on your site.. so. create a XML of your forum and then use something like carp to pull in the rss to your website

      vBulletin includes an external feed system which allows to to feed the latest ten public threads (not posts) to external pages. Here's a thread explaining this:



      And here's an explanation on how to use this in a web page:

        ok, let me explain what I am looking for, something close to this but little different.

        On each post I would like ot have a check box, which when clicked, it will give me an option to select the date from a drop down menu or calendar. Once done that, the script would write/append to an existing file for that month or create a new one.

        For example.

        I have a thread where news articles about a certain topic are posted. Now i would like to have these news articles to appear on a different part of the website where I gather all the news in different files and each file represents a month.

        Currently I am doing it manually where I have to append an html file each time I need to update it with the news articles. This is very cumbersome and time consuming. I would like to have an option on the thread/posts where once checked off a box, it will give me an option of month and year and will copy that post and append to the file at the bottom.

        Thanks for any help in advance.
