I'm betting this has already been done, but I looked thru the hacks and couldn't find it. I just need a small php script to pull the 10 most recent posts and include them (which basic info, like who, when, and maybe what forum) into a non-vb page.

Is this already posted somewhere?

Thanks,

Jeff

See my sig.

Way cool. It works great. Thanks a lot.

Not intending to be an ass, and I know this isn't a forum you moderate Kevin -- but this question illustrates my observation that the current information design for the hack request & release forum is just not working. It's bad usability.

Practically everyone who joins this forum ends up asking many of the same questions over and over -- I'm a great example -- simply because there is not a clear system established for FAQs.

Unless Mods simply enjoy pointing to the same answers over and over again, it would seem to me that everyone benefits from (1) good information and usability design in this Hacks group of forums, and (2) a periodically updated "sticky thread" FAQ which contains links to the most frequently asked for hacks/features.

If the vB Mods would agree to fix the bad usability (mixing requests and releases in multiple places), I would donate some of my time to help construct the FAQ, with links to the released hacks.

As great as the feedback is here, accessing the most frequently requested features and hacks is terribly inefficient. Seems to me everyone would benefit from some improvements here :)
