News Out - posts from forum(s) on any page · **Released**: 05-13-2004

This script will let you pull the first posts from threads in a forum and display them on a non-vb page anywhere on your site.

For example you can use this to pull posts from a forum and display them as news. (Each post in the forum is a news item).

Currently it will pull them on the basis of thread start date.

This is very rough and ready. But maybe someone will find it useful.

If you read the code and comments you can do things like strip out tags, snip the post off after the first para etc etc.

You can choose to write out to a file or to write to screen. You can pull stuff from one or many forums.

I'll try and answer any questions that come up, but this is a beta so....

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