[release] Last Thread Titles on Forumhome (Cleaner)

Requires PAPI. See the instructions for details.

Author: filburt1
Description: Includes the title of the last thread along with the last poster and date/time on forumhome.
Screenshot: next post
Demo: none yet

An important note! The last title for a given forum will only update when you post a new thread (newthread.php). Editing, deleting, moving, etc. a thread will not change this cache.

To get around this, run a cron job that executes "report.php?updatethreadtitlecache=1" every 10 minutes or so. This script uses about 6 queries on top of the few needed to run report.php. Once that script is ran, every last thread title will be updated.

If you don't know what a cron job is, I don't suggest you try this mod unless you want to play around with the database manually.

The instructions say:

In phpinclude, find:

// ---------------------------------------------------------------
// ------------------------- End PAPI ----------------------------
// ---------------------------------------------------------------

But all I've got in phpinclude is the following:

include("./customscripts/papi.php");
// This code is PHP4 only:
// ob_start();
// require("yourheader.html");
// $header = ob_get_contents();
// ob_end_clean();

I've got PAPI installed (note first line of my phpinclude above), but maybe I installed it wrong? I thought I just had to add that include statement to phpinclude and drop papi.php into a customscripts folder...

Thanks,
Mbow

Just think of include("./customscripts/papi.php"); as the End PAPI section... It should work, so long as you add everything after include("./customscripts/papi.php"); and before // This code is PHP4 only:... Have fun!

I'm doing that, and still no title is appearing for me.
