First things first, I am not an SMF enthusiast so I dunno jack about their terminologies and procedures.

Problem: Several people have been posting request for a module that will give them something like the Nairaland frontpage on their own forums.

Solution: I spent some 2 hours coding a "mod" that does that. This is a very quick solution to this problem so don't expect anything wow.

See screenshots below:
I will want to install this for anyone who wants it on his/her forum. All I ask for in return is that you don't cry or shout sey dual core don scam you if I scatter ya forum during installation (remember I told you I dunno jack about SMF, I'm just providing a solution to a problem). ...ok ok I wont break your forum... just pulling your legs/hair.

Sorry I cannot pack this up into an SMF mod/addon cuz I dunno how to and won't learn. SMF is not my kinda thing.

Sorry I don't speak English too well, I speak PHP and please don't contact me...cant help you.

Please I don't create threads with a general appeal, I create threads that will most likely be understood by only webmasters... this thread should not be on the frontpage. I don't want bankers and office clerks making comments, on this.

The webmasters who would need it would naturally make their way to the Webmasters section to gerrit.

This is the webmaster section. We speak a different language on here.

sizzlers: am outta here

You don't have to leave a post for that. Just move along. Thanks.

No idea bro, SMF isn't really my kinda toy.

afam4eva: I still dey wait oo

I have seen the files. I will upload it later today. I just need to find some time to arrange a documentation for it. The present note I wrote down for installation are just so crude that it makes me wonder what frame of mind I was in when writing it.

if you have any problem about your smf just contact me i can help you, am not an expert but i have been using it for wrong and can even create and beautify the mobile version for you, though the mod for nairaland frontpage is already out but only compatible with old smf version but can be re-coded
