I'm looking for the following three things to improve my vBulletin board:


Front Page - I want this so that I can post site related news ie expected downtime before they enter the actual forums.
Coloured user groups - I noticed how on this forum, different user groups have different coloured text.
User title images - Is this a hack or can you do it in vBulletin?I'm asking here as you guys will have your favourites for these hacks/plugins.

If possible, I'd like them to be plugins as it will much easier for me to manage. But I would mind doing a little bit of code modification if the documentation is good.

I'm using the professional style, so I'd like the front page to use the forum style if possible.

Thanks in advance! :D

User title images are ranks. Setup a user rank and give the rank a title :).

Colored usernames are set through the Edit Usergroup control, or can be set individually at user properties through the Admin CP.

vBa is a good CMS for a front page, but you could also do a static vBulletin page and then change your index.php for main.php, or something like that.

I looked at vBa and started to edit the code, but it told me to edit some code that wasn't there, so i won't be using it :D

Does anyone know of a plugin CMS? or whatever it's called?

I've set up user titles, but didn't know hoe to set up the images, can you guide me to the place in the AdminCP?

Thanks!

Just submit a support ticket to the vBulletin staff for the rank title images. They should be able to help you out. As for the CMS, you would probably be better off coding your own or hiring someone to do it for you.
