Thanks for this module. I was able to adapt the code (see attached) to show the groups with most recent posts.

What is the raw PHP code for showing the latest groups? I'm trying to insert it into a block in Drupal.

I'm running vbulletin 3.7.3 with cmps 2.0 and Vbseo Gold . I've install this module without any problem.

Now, I've into the latest social group box on cmps page every urls not S.E. friendly. But, into social page index I've every link search engine friendly.

This could generate a duplicate content indexing in Google.

Does anyone could help me to change urls in "Latest Social Group" box ?

Thank you Tintin

As long as the urls are rewritten before the page is loaded you should be fine (ie, you're not serving two similar pages with different URLs).

Great mod - working with vBulletin 3.8.0 and vBadvanced CMPS v3.1.0.

Does any one know how to restrict this mod to one specific social group category? (instead of all social group categories)

thank you for this, but cld it be modified to show the group image and name? this shld make the module much more attractive (IMHO). And of course, the ability to determine how many rows and columns of images to show. think it will look great

It is has been a long time since I released this mod, but I will take a look to see if I can get this to your liking BWJ and jl255

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