at the bottom or our discussion boards there are three links:

Contact CAO | CanadianActor Online | Privacy Statement

I would like to add a link to today's active topics. (people who don't want to reply like to just get back to the active topics; had to do a hack to add it to the old boards but i forget what i did. is there an easier way to add it to the latest version of UBB Classic, or a way to do a hack?

Just a suggestion:

Why not replace the URL TO HOMEPAGE with a link to the ACTIVE TOPICS? Its in the DISPLAY OPTIONS/GENERAL. Ive found that very few people use the homepage link anyway once theyre on the board. You can just title the homepage as "TODAYS ACTIVE TOPICS" and put the link there

Our home page is important; it's not the discussion board home page. With the old board, someone told me how to hack the code to include a Today's Active Topics link at the bottom of the board beside the privacy link. it was quite simple. but of course, did it once and forgot how to do it!

Should be public_common.pl:
Code
	if ($vars_display{ContactLinkType} ne 'Email') {
		$contact_url = qq!$vars_display{ContactURL}!;
	} else {
		$contact_url = qq!mailto:$vars_display{BBEmail}!;
	}

	my @ContactItems = ();
	if($vars_display{ShowContactUsLink} eq "ON") {
		push(@ContactItems, qq!<a href="$contact_url">$vars_wordlets{contact_us}</a>!);
	}

	if($vars_display{ShowHomepageLink} eq "ON") {
		push(@ContactItems, qq!<a href="$vars_display{HomePageURL}">$vars_display{MyHomePage}</a>!);
	}

	if ($vars_display{ShowPrivacyLink} eq "ON") {
		push(@ContactItems, qq!<a href="$vars_display{PrivacyURL}">$vars_wordlets{privacy_statement_link}</a>!);
	}
