Try editing forumhome_latest_thread_bit or something similar.

This modification would not put any more load onto your forumhome, then adding it to a separate page. Regardless which page its on, it is a query.

ya its gotten better. But wanted to put it on the home page with few other things. So is there a way to put it on a home page thats not vbulletin related?

Michael Biddle · #28 01-30-2008, 07:52 PM

If you want to have it on a different page (Not powered by vbulletin) You would need to connect to the database and query the information. Same concept really.

im pretty new to website building, any chance you can explain that a little bit to me? If it would take a little while to explain it, dont worry about it than.

thx.

Michael Biddle · #30 01-31-2008, 05:09 AM

Yea its too complicated to explain it. Besides that is not what this thread is for. Sorry.

Is there a way to display the latest thread on all inside pages too?
