You do not need a modification for this. All you need to do is turn the feature on and put a script on the site you want to display the feed on.

If you want to look it up, its called the "external data provider." Here is where to find it at.

Step 1 - VB admin control panel - left column - vb options - vb options - External Data Provider - Enable External Javascript - Yes - Save.

Step 2 - Then go to the webpage you want to display the recent post on and add this code.

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.your forum address.com/forum/external.php?&type=js"></script>
<script language="" type="text/javascript">
<!--
for (x = 0; x < 15; x++)
{
document.writeln("*<a href=http://www.your forum address.com/forum/showthread.php?t="+threads[x].threadid+">"+threads[x].title+"</a><br />");
}
//-->
</script>

That will display the 15 most recent forum threads on your external page. Just for the fun of it, I inserted a * to separate the links. Lets say you want 5 post instead of 15, just replace that 15 in the code with a 5.

You can see it here in the left column of this site - its feeding the most recent post from the VB forum - http://www.elgms.com/

That should get you started. If you need more inforamtion, go to vbulletin.com and look up "External Data Provider" - there have been several examples posted over there.

You can also define which forum sections you want to display from. And I have that option set on another one of my sites. Where only post from certain forum sections are displayed.
