I have been trying to integrate the message board with each thing posted on the main page but haven't been able to find a script that would do that.
Well, I have, but it either hasn't worked or just is not compatible with this version of vBulletin.
If I could get that done, it would rule. Every thing posted on the main page would have a "post your comments" link on it that would link to a thread automatically posted on the forums (in its own forum) and people could reply to everything posted, like columns and news and whatever.
