UPDATE: uploaded a new version that can restrict the threads to just a select number of forums. If you want to use this feature, modify "$fid_raw =" (there's instructions in the code).

It won't check whether the user is logged in and what he/she has permission to. But you can simply restrict it to forums that you want to be publicly available.



edit: Added following instructions.

In this newer version, if you guys want to include the thread creator as was discussed in post 7, do this:
FIND:

PHP Code:

$thread_sql = mysql_query("SELECT threadid,title,lastpost,lastposter FROM ".$db_prefix."thread WHERE visible=1 AND open=1 $fid_final ORDER BY lastpost desc LIMIT $limit"); 


REPLACE WITH:

PHP Code:

$thread_sql = mysql_query("SELECT threadid,title,lastpost,lastposter,postusername FROM ".$db_prefix."thread WHERE visible=1 AND open=1 $fid_final ORDER BY lastpost desc LIMIT $limit"); 


FIND:

PHP Code:

    echo "<li><a href=\"$forum_url/showthread.php?t=$tid\">$thread_get[title]</a> <span class=\"$recent_poster\">($poster $seperator $date2)</span></li>\n"; 


REPLACE WITH:

PHP Code:

echo "<li><a href=\"$forum_url/showthread.php?t=$tid\">$thread_get[title]</a> <span class=\"$recent_poster\">(created by: $firstpost, last reply by: $poster $seperator $date2)</span></li>\n"; 


The time instructions are still the same to change from 12hr to 24hr.

Anybody need upgrade instructions to go from 1.00 if you already installed it to 1.01? Only new functionality is to be able to restrict threads to multiple forums.
