lastactivethread column is populated but still nothing. I did however use your recommendation and install other hack with the same results. Here is the forumdisplaybit template, I have at the bottom placed how I setup the 2 tables in your hack.

I see one problem in your template, and that is the iconid. iconid only returns the number. You still need to add the image tag and 'icon' part of the name. Here's my template:

------------------------------------------------
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" id="ltlink">
<tr>
<td rowspan="2" valign="top"><a href="$bburl/showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&goto=lastpost&forumid=$forum[forumid]" title="Go to last post"><img src="images/icons/icon$forum[lastactiveiconid].gif" border="0" alt="">&nbsp;</a></td>
<td align="left"><smallfont><a href="$bburl/showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&goto=lastpost&forumid=$forum[forumid]" title="Go to last post"><font color="#000000">$forum[lastactivethread]</font></a> (<a href="$bburl/member.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=getinfo&find=lastposter&forumid=$forum[forumid] title="See $forum[lastposter]s profile">$forum[lastposter]</a>)</smallfont></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td nowrap><smallfont>$forum[lastpostdate] <font color="#666686">$forum[lastposttime]</font></td>
</tr>
</table>
------------------------------------------------

Try just referencing it just by $lastactiveiconid and $lastactivethread, without the 'forum' bit. If that doesn't work, try $foruminfo[lasticonid] and $foruminfo[lastactivethread]

If that doesn't work, then you're on your own. I assume you are using the latest vB and are on php4?
