Yes and know. External.php is theirs, or at least the base was -- I've made changes to it, but what they've coded in is very limited. I dug around on the vb open-source community site, and found some modifications that fit our needs. I could offer RSS feeds for new posts vs. new threads, for example. Or limit feeds to certain forums, etc.
The great thing about vb, is it makes an outstanding base for modification. I don't know anyone who runs it stock. I'm sure many do, but there's just too much you can do with it, particularly now that they've gone to an adaptive plug-in system. Which, for someone like me who does not feel at home with PHP and MySQL, is a dream come true, as we spend far less time hand editing code. Which is really easy the first time you apply a hack. But gets progressively more difficult the more you modify it.
