I would like to organize something much like the first page of this site - i.e news article and link to appropriate topic in e-balh forum for comments. How I can do it?

There is a Shownews.(html/xml) file located in your /blahdocs/templates directory.  Use that with PHP by including it into your page.


I do installs for $25 and upgrades for $20.

I see.  File Shownews.html generated every time as new message added. News.html is used as template. Right?

How I can regenerate this file off-line ?

Offline?  What do you mean?

Using the E-Blah News Feature

That may help.  I recommend using the include with the actual file though, and not the URL.  The URL will be a burden on the server.

Justin, thank you for response!
Of course I include just the Shownews.html file.  As far as I understand this file regenerated every time when I change anything on the forum.  I would like to turn this future off and regenerate first-page news once per day by cron.

How I can do it?

You can't, the forum automatically does it when the news boards are modified.
