Latest XX Threads on Forumhome Page · **Released**: 09-07-2002

This hack will add your latest xx threads to your forum home page.
The good part is that you can do all this with only 1 query.

The following options are available:
- number of threads displayed
- alternating background color (same like the showthread view)
- thread's title (with link)
- thread's title lenght (just in case you use it in a small table)
- thread's icon
- thread's date and time
- thread's starter (with link)
- thread's no. of views
- thread's no. of replies

[high]The hack uses each forum's permissions.[/high]
In other words, if you have a private forum, your private threads will not show unless you have permissions to view them.

ESTIMATED INSTALL TIME: 5 minutes
REQUESTED BY: Nobody
TESTED IN VERSION: 2.2.7

I have had my own version of this running on my forumhome for a few months now - yeah, mine runs with 1 query too. I also have the latest reply poster in as well as the forum category that the thread is in, using JOIN. Took me days to figure out how to join them - in the end Chen helped.

there is no need to use a join. just use the $thread['lastposter'] or whatever other option you want to add that is usually displayed in the showthread. i found that is already alot of information in there. look at my customized look, i only use the thread title and link.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
