You can only use a variable if you've defined it. If you define $recent[topics], then sure, you can use it, but you can't go into a new page, put a variable in there, and expect something to show up if you have no code written to define it. If you want to show recent threads/posts, you will need to add the code to your page to define them first.

Sure, I know what you are trying to do, but as I said, you need to code it. There are several mods around that will get the latest threads, or latest posts. You'll have to take one of them and modify it to work on your own page.

Had a quick look around but couldn't see anything? I must be having a silly week this week!

Could really do with a guide on this guys - As home page is starting to come together at the moment and need this as it would be great and make the homepage look a lot better!

Did you see this article - Create "Latest Threads" Custom Page (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=108725&highlight=latest%2A) And then tons of Mods to get the Latest XXX also. Did you look at any of those?

The article I linked to it in the vB3 articles forum.
