Hi All,

I was thinking of adding a URL which grabs the latest posts from a couple of forums (using search.php), but I have a problem of specifying the forumids; if there's only one forum, I can use search.php?do=getdaily&forumid=3, but I want it to search a number of forums.
and I've tried:
search.php?do=getdaily&forumid=3,5
search.php?do=getdaily&forumid=[3,5]
search.php?do=getdaily&forumid=3&forumid=5

doesnt seem to work.

Can someone help me? Thanks!

You can only do it if one is a child forum of the other. Then specify forumid=3 - where 3 is the parent forum.

The forums I wanted to search are actually all parent forums; cause I want the search to search the child forums of the specified forums as well.

Any ideas how to do that? Thanks.
