forums list on the index page

[tanya]

Does anyone have a quick way of putting the forums page in the middle of the index page? I guess i'll have to set it up as a module?

I'd really appreciate it if anyone could point me in the right direction, or if anyone has already done this kind of thing.

thanks in advance!

I'm looking for the same thing, I know I can hardcode it, but I think it should be a module.

What about integrating your forum's homepage with the CMPS (there are instructions on how to do this in the User's Manual available in the Member's Area)?

I'm also interested in this. Major props to anyone that can make it happen :)

Again... Why not just integrate your forum's index page with the CMPS and use that as your homepage?

Because I only need a very small part of what this would do. Specifically, I want the names of my forums with the icon that indicates if there is a new post in that forum, but nothing else.

So:

No new posts
- Forum 1
- Forum 2
- Forum 3

New posts in Forum 2
- Forum 1
+ Forum 2
- Forum 3

New post in Forums 2 and 3
- Forum 1
+ Forum 2
+ Forum 3

It doesn't sound like this will do exactely what you want to do, but, close I think.
