Hi,
I'm little confused about what you're trying to achieve and how it relates to the BBC news website?

Ah OK. What they're doing there is using a third party site (the one they use is http://feed2js.org but I'm sure there's others) to convert an RSS feed (like those provided by the BBC) into a code which can be placed into the header/footer of your forum. If you need help with the specifics of which options to choose when creating it then just let me know {Smile}

OK, so what is the specific RSS feed you'd like to have displayed on your site? I know you mentioned the BBC news ones before but I believe they produce different ones for each topic {Smile}

So do you just want it in this board or on all pages of the forum? And do you want it on the left or the right? {Smile}

Not quite what i meant, i wanted it above the boards on the right and i only wanted it to display when browsing for sub-boards not actually in the sub-board {Tongue Out}

"Above the boards on the right"

Can you be a little more specific on what you mean by that?

And exactly which boards do you want it shown in?
