I went with a small amount of thread information (brevity) so that the ticker wouldn't be extremely long, but I can add in the forum name, and all the other options offered in the Recent Posts Block.

As for the latest thanks/groan, can you tell me the table/column names where that information can be retrieved?

Yes I like the brevity myself too ... I just like the marquee instead of the big block for recent posts and other news ...

The latest thanks is retrieved from the default thanks system I would guess .... this might help you out .. this is the mod for it ...

Those mods have likely added either new tables or columns to existing tables, or both. I would need to know what's been added to the database, because I don't have those installed on my dev site, and I'd rather not have to do download and inspect them if possible.

Hmm... I know just a bit about tables, columns and I would need some guidance as to what I would be looking for ...

I'll just download the products and take a look at the install code in the .XML files, it will show what tables/columns are added. :)

:erm: ... sorry my Man that's why I am not doing this myself ...just know a bit of what is going on

No worries...I'll get it worked out, and I'll attempt to offer support for DBTech's post thanks product as well. :)

The post thanks product is not the one I have though .. but that will be good for others ...

Here is the update with the other thread options added. I decided trying to support multiple post thanks products is just more time and effort than I can afford right now. I've got a lot of other things I have to stay on top of.

Good stuff! Going to try this! Currently I have the Dragonbyte shoutbox showing latest threads under the navbar but it takes a little too much space above the page fold and it doesn't show thread titles for threads that have content marked private.

I am going to try this!

Hey Mark, will this just pull latest thread/posts from all forums?

Thank you Mark!

It'd be nice if someone supported their products because they certainly don't.

They are pretty good if you fill out a ticket at their site.

hello I was trying and it works on vb 4.2.5 I wanted advice on how to show it in the footer instead in navbar thank you
