Hey guys,
I recently set up a nice 'snazzy' news ticker on the bottom of my sites forumhome page.
The problem is, the best I could do, was have it all manual. The code in my forumhome template is as follows:
Code:
<div id="ft_ticker">
<ul id="ticker01">
<li><span>DATE</span><a href="">LINK TO THREAD</a></li>
<li><span>DATE</span><a href="">LINK TO THREAD</a></li>
<li><span>DATE</span><a href="">LINK TO THREAD</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
Is there a way to code it so that it will automatically call the latest "X" number of threads from the "Y" forum; and preferably with a "post date" that goes where the "DATE" is.
I've spent the past few hours trying to do it myself via searches and trial & error to no avail, am I just missing something easy, or is there some 'serious business' involved?
Thanks
