Thanks for the answers.

Well I mean to fetch RSS data from an outside source and make new threads each time. For example lets say news from BBC News, and each time a new entry is posted at BBC News then it will create a new topic with the data in the specified forum.

How to make a site navigation as in this portal?

What is advanced support? So If I buy the cheapest license, then I get no support?

You can probably fetch RSS news and post them in a custom content island. As for it actually creating new threads, that'd probably take a major hack - if even possible at all.

You get the same support you're getting right now included. ;\) Advance Support would be for more complex issues which Rick could better explain...

(I'm afraid to reply now thinking Rick already has. \:D )

Oh and just to chime in real quick, I've been with the UBB since the late 90's, and experianced several authors over several company names and a couple of products... Keep in mind that this was well before several of the competing products where even a twinkle in their authors eyes.

Alright. Thanks for the answers.

Nah, I mean the "Purchase" and all the portal navigation links in the portal.

Gizmo, what do you mean with that? \:p

we had something like this in the initial beta, it wasn't that large of a "hack" it was actually a fairly easy update; but it hasn't worked "well" since like Beta4

Add a new custom island, and assign it where you want it to be (under your portal settings)

I count on it ;)...

I'm working on styles though, so any responses from me may take a while :x

Would be nice \:\) - I can think of a few sites that generate nice rss feeds, that would be good for an automated forum.

I got some new ones.

Why are UBB Threads so expensive??

$229 per license and $125 for upgrades (that is insane!). I mean come on, the upgrade price is insane and also the first license price!
