Are there any creative ideas out there to include "Stumble Upon" into into VBAdvanced? I personally spend a lot of time Stumbling, and always come across boxes on sites that recognize me as a Stumbler, and ask me to give their site a Thumbs Up and a Recommendation.

So it knows that you're using the Stumble toolbar or some other identifier?
If you give an example of a site that recognizes you as a Stumble Upon user, let me know the URL and I'll take a look to see if I can spot how it's being done.

I'm looking, and as soon as I find a page, I'll link it.
In the meantime, I'd really like to add a Stumble button to my vbadvanced page.....I'm no coding expert

I couldnt find any of the sites I come across while stumbling that usae the plugin I was talking about, but I see it mentioned here:
Welcome new visitors.
You may want to include a welcome message to all stumblers if you notice that your web page is being heavily stumbled. Wordpress users can install the What Would Seth Godin do Wordpress Plugin which encourages all new visitors to subscribe to your feed.

Kevin, any ideas on this.....I think having the ability to pinpoint Stumblers, and ask them to mark your site would be a nice add-on.
On a separate note, how can I add a stumble button to my VBAdvanced portal page?

http://google.com
Terms: add stumble upon to my web site
The first few results seem to have some code you can add.
I was just turned on to this -> http://www.addthis.com/
Now the question is, Where will I add the code for the button, for it to appear in each new Dynamics post :rolleyes:

Google it? Gee, why didn't I think of that!!!!!
What I'm asking is maybe where does the code go, and do I just add it into the template? And....which template?
And, that was only part of the question. I had made mention of sites that seemed to know when someone had Stumbled on them, and was asked to link them so we could see about maybe adding a like function for VBAdvanced (see post #5).

Capper, I didn't forget ya'.... have been tied up these past few days with some Real World stuff that needed my attention. When I have a chance to experiment again, I'll see what I can whip up.

Oh man, I completely understand Kevin.
I just thought it was a neat idea that maybe would be great for VBulletin/VBAdvanced.

Assuming you want a new module...
Admin CP => vBa CMPS => Add Module => Template Module
Go there, fill out the blanks, and enter the whatever custom code you've found in the 'Template Content' section. There is no template to edit in that case since you're adding a new one.
Otherwise, add the code to whatever vB template you want it to appear in.
