Tigga - How do I include other HTML files with this? I have everything setup and working as it should,just one problem.. I CAN'T seem to be able to include my pages o_0 Is their something I can edit somewhere that'll let me include pages? I tried my old inclusion code and it doesn't work. So how would I be able to replace the news included form the specified forum, with the sites content when a link is clicked? o_0

Thanks... Hey, when i put RAND, it takes polls from private sections also. Is there a fix for this? Can I have it take polls at random from a se3ction made for just polls?

Tigga, so far so good with what you did. I'll keep you updated. Thanks

Just a small note to anyone running v3.2.1 - Intex and Littlebit have found 3 small bugs in the script. Anyone running v3.2.1 should upgrade to the latest version in the first post (there are instructions and more details about the bugs in that post as well). I apologize to everyone for not testing the script better than I did, but hopefully those will be the only bugs found. On the plus side, I think I did figure out a better way to pull the news posts without any modifications to your newthread.php file or the post table in the database. Littlebit is testing this for me now (and I will be looking for a couple of other beta testers), so hopefully this new way will work better and there will be another update to follow in the next few days. :)


MatrixSh0cke - If you'll take a look at this post it should help you out. :)

frankenberrie - When pulling a random poll, it goes by the same forum permissions as the latest threads section, hence you should only be able to see polls in forums that you are allowed to view. Try logging out and see if it's still pulling polls from private forums. If so, double check that your forum permissions are set correctly and that the "Use Custom Settings" radio button at the top of the forum permissions section is checked. If you still have problems after that please let me know.

Littlebit - Glad to hear it. Thanks for helping to test it and please let me know if there are any problems.

Tigga - Thx for that. I have just upgraded to 3.2.2 and I can confirm it fixes the bugs as we highlighted. Additionally the reverting of the threadbit template solved the problem with the hover - which now shows the last post person / time (even though I thought that was supposed to be reversed now ;)).

I can't see any info about the RAND command in the POLL, but I know now anyway.

As for the polls, I've never had a problem with any of the features not working on 2.2.5. Just lucky I guess :D.

Glad to hear everything is working properly. The reason the latest threads shows the last poster & time on the mouseover is because I figured it would be better to do it that way rather than changing too much around. This way you can simply edit the template and change it around to your liking. :)
That's strange that the poll works ok on 2.2.5... I've never had a version prior to 2.2.6 to test it on, but everyone I know that's tried to use this script with that version has had problems. Oh well, as you said, I guess you're just lucky. :)

Thanks for the update

Hey Tigga :),
In troubleshooting the news thing....
I have the community bulletin installed also and when I add that same thread ID to the news part of the bulletin, it ended up inserting, in the bulletin, my first reply post in that thread instead of the actual first post of the thread by the other admin. I'm not sure what this means.
This probably makes better sense to you then me...

Acutally I'm not quite sure what you're talking about... Can you give me a link to the community bulletin hack you're talking about and a link to the problem on your site itself?

Oh, of course, this hack: Communtiy Bulletin
you'll have to log in as an admin again to see what I meant or I can send out the bulletin and you can see it on your end that way...hang on I'll email you.
