Top 5 Last Threads On index.php

[mcyates]

I have the top.5.threads on my index page but the problem is, when i click on any of the top 5 newest threads it takes me to the first message posted. I need it to take me to the latest thead (the last thread) posted on the topic, does anyone know how this can be done. The code for the last 10 threads is below. If posswible could someone alter it for me and then post it in a reply to this topic. Thanks. Mine is called the Top 10 Thread Replys as i have set it to show 10 threads instead of 5.

// Top 10 Thread Replys
// Top 1 Most Popular Thread
$pop1 = $DB_site->query('SELECT title,threadid,views FROM thread ORDER BY views DESC LIMIT 1');
while ($pop1top = mysql_fetch_array($pop1)):
	++$pop1topnbsp;
	$pop1title .= "<a href=showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&threadid=$pop1top[threadid]>$pop1top[title]</a>";
	$pop1views .= "$pop1top[views]";

Thanks in advance

PHP Code:

$pop1 = $DB_site->query('SELECT title,threadid,views,lastpost FROM thread ORDER BY lastpost DESC LIMIT 1');
while ($pop1top = mysql_fetch_array($pop1)):
    ++$pop1topnbsp;
    $pop1title .= "<a href=showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&threadid=$pop1top[threadid]>$pop1top[title]</a>";
    $pop1views .= "$pop1top[views]"; 


Try that.

nope that didn't work, just didn't show anything. Thanks for the try though. Is there anuthing else that may work.

[assassingod]

Try

PHP Code:

$pop1 = $DB_site->query('SELECT title,threadid,views,dateline FROM thread ORDER BY dateline DESC LIMIT 1'); 
while ($pop1top = mysql_fetch_array($pop1)): 
    ++$pop1topnbsp; 
    $pop1title .= "<a href=showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&threadid=$pop1top[threadid]>$pop1top[title]</a>"; 
    $pop1views .= "$pop1top[views]"; 


[mcyates]

nope that didn't work either. But thanks again. Anyone else know?

[assassingod]

It should work. Also, why are you LIMITing to 1?

Use this, its templated as well so it's much better:

PHP Code:

$latestthread=$DB_site->query("SELECT title,threadid,lastpost FROM thread ORDER BY lastpost LIMIT 5");
    while ($latestthread=$DB_site->fetch_array($latestthreads)) {
  eval("\$fh_lthreads .= \"".gettemplate('forumhome_latestthreads)."\";");
} 


Then creat a template called forumhome_latestthreads with the contents:

<a href="showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&threadid=$latestthreads[threadid]">$latestthreads[title]</a>

Then use '$fh_lthreads' anywhere you want

That SHOULD work.

that creates a parse error

that's relatively easy, suprised you didn't get that assassin, oh well, heres teh fix

PHP Code:

// Top 10 Thread Replys// Top 1 Most Popular Thread$pop1 = $DB_site->query('SELECT title,threadid,views FROM thread ORDER BY views DESC LIMIT 1');while ($pop1top = mysql_fetch_array($pop1)):    ++$pop1topnbsp;    $pop1title .= "<a href=showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&goto=lastpost&threadid=$pop1top[threadid]>$pop1top[title]</a>";    $pop1views .= "$pop1top[views]"; 


sorted
