I'm trying to find a way (quickly...ummm...easily...) to have a post island generate which contains the titles AND first 50 chars of the Post content for external use elsewhere in my site.
From my novice navigation of this topic - it seems I need to edit the post_island_X.tpl (or other Template depending on where/how I want to do this) and that it would be a Smarty function. Since I'm not familiar with UBB Data structures OR Smarty, and am a HACK at best in PHP, has anyone else already accomplished this herculean feat?

P.S. Ummm...it also MIGHT seem to me that I need to post this on UBBDev.com, but I'm not 100% certain on the split there...
