I took this MOD:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=97403
And turned it into this:
51318
I did it without any real prior knowledge of php or mySQL so I'm sure my code is very inefficient. I pieced it together from what was already in the MOD and got the rest from trial & error.
Here's the plugin code. Any feedback is appreciated, thank you.
Original Code:
// ### LATEST NEWS BY TANTAWI ############################################
$latesta = $db->query_first('SELECT title,threadid,views,replycount FROM ' . TABLE_PREFIX . 'thread WHERE 1 AND forumid = 28 ORDER BY dateline DESC LIMIT 1');
$lns_show = "<a href=\"showthread.php?" . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . "t=$latesta[threadid]\">$latesta[title]</a>";
My Code:
