I love it, one issue, the images are showing as red X's in the lastest thread titles. How do you fix that?

Is there an update for this to work on 3.7? The current 3.7 hacks arent as good as this version. Thanks.

[Lucas]

This hack works on 3.7. I have it installed.

[Greg-J]

Same here. I've just upgraded from 3.6.8 to 3.7.1 and it still working. Done nothing special.

Mine was working with 3.7.2 until I added a couple of new forums today. For some reason it stopped following permissions rules and started showing threads in 'restricted' forums (like my moderator's forum) to everyone. The forums I added have nothing to do with the moderator's forum, and I tried a couple other 'similar' mods and they don't show threads that are in 'restricted' forums.

I have no idea what happened, but if anyone has any ideas I'd like to hear them. I like this mod a lot and would like to get it back in use.

too bad there is no version yet for 3.7.x

My vbulletin forum is located at mysite.com/forum, but is it possible to show the latest threads in the main page (html) with this mod?

[paxuh]

I would like to show latest active threads on a non vBulletin html page. Is it possible to do so with this add-on?
