Show Thread Enhancements - Show latest threads on showthread

Do you ever wanted to show latest threads on showthread ? You can do that without products. All you need is to use build-in RSS feed. Here you will be presented all topics within actual forum and all subforums. It's working great!

1. admincp > vbulletin options > External Data Provider > set yes all
2. Place this code into template ad_showthread_beforeqr
   

   <!-- show latest active threads -->
   <br />
   <table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" 
   align="center">
   <tbody><tr><td class="tcat">
   <a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('forumhome_external')"><img 
   id="collapseimg_forumhome_external" 
   src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_tcat$vbcollapse[collapseimg_forumhome_external].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>
   <a href="forumdisplay.php?f=$foruminfo[forumid]">New topics in $foruminfo[title]</a>
   </td></tr></tbody>
   
   <tbody id="collapseobj_forumhome_external" style="$vbcollapse[collapseobj_forumhome_external]">
   
   <tr><td class="alt1" width="100%" valign="top">
    
   <div class="smallfont">
   
   <script type="text/javascript" src="external.php?forumids=$foruminfo[childlist]&type=js"></script>
   <script language="" type="text/javascript">
   <!--
   for (var x in threads)
   {
   document.writeln("<a href=\"showthread.php?t="+threads[x].threadid+"&goto=newpost\"><img class=\"inlineimg\" src=\"$stylevar[imgdir_button]/firstnew.gif\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" /></a> <a href=\"showthread.php?t="+threads[x].threadid+"\">"+threads[x].title+"</a> <br />");
   }
   //-->
   </script>
   
   </div>
    
   </td>
   
   </tr></tbody>
   </table>
   
   <!-- / show latest active threads -->

3. Done

Optional
If you want to change time frame of your refreshing threads, go to
AdminCP > vBulletin Settings > External Data Provider
Change the value of Cache Lifespan to for example "1 Minute"

Hope that works great for you, too. I'd be glad to hear from you via pm.
