Just wondering if there is a way to create a box on a website that shows the latest post on a vbulletin forum. Simmilar to this one:

I own a website and have a vBulletin forum linking off it. I think this would help connect both sites together.

Thanks for that.

I tried setting up the rss one http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=158916 but I'm not having much luck.

Where I want the latest posts to be displayed its just showing me:
echo $rss_output;

I changed the $rss_file code too.

$rss_file = 'http://www.dollhousetvforum.com/external.php?type=rss';

Stupid question: is yours a PHP (.php) page?

Try using this code:

echo "$rss_output";

Still no luck.

I'm adding the code inside a table.

I just realized the code can only be places in certain spots (it works when the word "echo" goes blue).

Problem with that is I cant seem to post the rss feeds where I want it :(

Are you placing the code in between <?PHP and ?>.

I guess that was the problem. Thanks seems to be working fine now.
