Okay g00gl3r sorry about this.

I had the plugin location in forumhom_complete, I moved to a global position.

Please re-download and reupload. $latest should work In any location now (just tested footer)

ALSO

I cached it up as requested before

if i'd know to add " if is_member_of($user, 6); " code I'd do this myself but i don't know where should I add this code

how come my shows the "last reply" in Latest 5 Posts instead of the title itself?

Can I have a site, So i can see what you are talking about.

sure, http://www.giotmuadong.com/

Is there any chance to redo this nice add-on with better forumgroup option?

I imagine this as a block with css tab browsing between different forumgroups tabs.

Lets say that we have tabs 3.5|3.6| - OR - coding|design|chitchat| and within those tabs to have last x threads....
This will be very handy for big forums so that users can quickly find threads of their interest.... Lets say I am not interested in coding threads so I simply click on "design" tab and will see latest threads of my interests....

that would not be too hard to do I suppose. Just add a where thread.forumid = w/e , but I am not doing it in CSS, I am keeping it as is, because it goes along with vbulletins table structures, so it will work on all skins

Thanks whitemike, can you be more specific on how to achieve this? If not css, Is there a way to reload lastposts table with ajax so that only this tab will reload instead of entire webpage?

I guess what I am trying to say, Is yes, It can be done in CSS, but for the sake of the public, I am keeping it as is layout, due too everyone normally uses thead, tcat, etc. To help blend with colors, but yes, you can customize it.

hmm I do not really care about css or table, what I want to do is that I want to have more than last x threads option

I want to offer last x threads from certain forums group (user can click which one) not from entire forum. But I do not know how to achieve this.
Say that there will be 4 forum groups (topics) setted by admin and then user will click on forumhome-lastpoststable which he wants to see.

Before i install, i got a few questions...

When idling on forum home, everytime someone make sa new thread/post it will automatically update?

Is there on/off switch to show Number of post and threads?

Is i don't want guests to see this, is there a way to disable it for them?

yes their is an on off switch and an if in the plugin would allow certain usergroups to see it

Where should i add it?

in the main coding plugin

thanks m8

Great piece of software.

Anyone know what template to edit to remove the space between the "Latest X Posts on Forum Home" and the navbar above it? I want to use this feature but the space is taking up valuable real estate. See the photo.

Well right now it adds it directly under the navbar. Read through this thread, I show how to remove the auto ad, and how to add to a custom location

Please click install if you use ;)

I only offer support to people who installed

Change the IF in the main code page to this

No, their is no ajax in this. it will update on page refresh

Yes their is an on off switch

In the main script change the top if to this:

That means guests cannot view it

Would it be possible to display the thread title instead of the contents of thread for $pagetext ?

how would i change this ?

Wish someone would make a "Latest Threads" on forum home mod. The ones here aren't that great or coded for earlier versions or....etc.

Well I could make Latest Threads, its just a matter of changing the post table to the thread table

What about showing the thread title instead of the contents for $pagetext ...is that pretty easy to change if so can you explain ?

ok, now i managed to add that code BUT i can´t read my forum normally if this mod is on. It won´t show any threads or just new threads from one forum. So the main page is ok, but that´s all.

This is a great mod, but layout could be much better. For example now message is a link. So every message is underlined and difficult to read. There could be message and under that a link to the "real" message.

Sebbo, I also found this bug, I updated it, make sure you get the latest mod. Reason being was when i made it global. it made it go haywire, so I added it back to forumhome ;D. Make sure to update please

I'd be very interested in this.

Ok, well I did this and it works great. Will release in this post soon.

If you haven't installed this mod/hack you need to and look for more from Mike. His code is good and if you have a problem / request he seems to work his hardest to solve and help you work for what you need!

coder a+++
code a+++
support a+++

Redownload latest version. I fixed this

Great mod, Mike, thanks.

Could you please advise if there is an easy way for the default action of the $latest box to be collapsed?

Cheers,

STT

love the mod...anyway it would be possible to allow it to use the special mods like {username} so it actually shows the users name instead of the code? Otherwise it is progressing great...add a few graphix and this would easily surpass any others I've looked at

Not quite sure what your asking to do. please explain better

After reading it 5 times through now, I think I know what you mean. Are you talking about like the /me, /you hack?

sry for the delay been out of town it actually goes to this hack that I am refering to Personalized Threads

I've tried everything I can think of, but this mod refuses to show up on my site......read every post in this thread, added the "$latest" under the navbar, nothing makes this mod show up

Mike,

At the risk of repeating myself - is there a way to make the default action of the $latest box (which I've put under my main forum list) be collapsed?

Cheers,

STT

I will look into that one as default, But i know once you do close it, the cookies should save its closed and open status. Sorry for long reply. Host deleted my site, and I am frantically trying to get it where it was. :D

Good luck with that Mike - I've had a few battles with my host over the years, I feel your pain.

BTW - you're right, the cookies do take care of it once you've taken the action.

hey!

nice hack!

clicks install!

Thanks, just what I was looking for!:biggrin:
