I'd like to do a couple things:
1) On the front page, I'd like to add a secondary news module. Basically I have site news and web news, both of which should have informatin fetched from a designated forum (this is set up and works great with the web news). How do I add another module that's essentially the same thing as web news, but fetches data from another forum, also shows up on the front page, and gets auto-archived after every post (i.e. only the most recent post shows up on the home page)?
2) One of my site features is an article database. These articles contain images and should be split up into several pages each (with page navigation at the bottom). Is there a module that I can use for these articles or some sort of hack? I'm guessing the articles would also be written in the forum, then fetched from there and posted on the site (kind of like the news), except with page splits and upon reaching the "articles archive" the user sees a list of say the 10 latest articles with links to each. There would also be a static page (updated by myself) with links to all the articles by category. How can I do this?
