hi there.

i want to display 2 "lastthreads" with vbindex.

task: both latestthreads are just displaying threads of a single forum, BUT both are displaying different content. let's say "lastthreads1" displays content from forumID=21 and "lastthreads2" displays content from forumID=22

any suggestions how to work that out in the script? it has to be possible...

[TheBurner]

Is it possible to change the position of the latest treads?
I want it under the navbar and above the forums....

What are the things that must be changed?

I think it's pretty simple to change it in FORUMHOME butt I can't do it.
I messed up so I changed it back.

Kan anyone help me out?

[TheBurner]

I did it right this time

Sorry for the post....

lol... here's a funny one to ask. If you go to my site you'll see that I have two different versions of this hack in stalled.


www.7hmgaming.com
on style 7hm it is aligned "Left"
and on Plasma_x it's justified and in columns.

How the hell did I do this? I can't remember which adjustment I made for this to happen...

[ProperMethodz]

OK... here is what I did.

in forumhome_latestthreadbit
Replace:

<div class="smallfont">
	<if condition="$show['firstnew']">
		<a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]threadid=$thread[threadid]&goto=newpost"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/firstnew.gif" alt="$vbphrase[go_to_first_new_post]" border="0" /></a>
	</if>
	<if condition="$show['icon'] && !$show['firstnew']">
		<img src="$vboptions[bburl]/$thread[threadiconpath]" border="0" alt="$thread[threadicontitle]" title="$thread[threadicontitle]" style="vertical-align: text-middle" /> 
	</if>
	<a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]threadid=$thread[threadid]" title="$thread[preview]"><strong>$thread[title]</strong></a>
	<em>$vbphrase[last_post]:</em> $thread[date] <if condition="$vboptions['yestoday'] != 2"><span class="time">$thread[time]</span></if> <phrase 1="member.php?$session[sessionurl]find=lastposter&threadid=$thread[threadid]" 2="$thread[lastposter]">$vbphrase[by_x]</phrase>
	? $vbphrase[replies]: $thread[replycount]
	? $vbphrase[views]: $thread[views]
</div>

With:

<div class="smallfont">
	
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%">
<tr>
<td width="30%"><div class="smallfont"><a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]threadid=$thread[threadid]" title="$thread[preview]"><strong>$thread[title]</strong></a></div></td>
<td width="30%"><div class="smallfont"><em>$vbphrase[last_post]:</em> $thread[date] <if condition="$vboptions['yestoday'] != 2"><span class="time">$thread[time]</span></if></div></td>
<td width="16%"><div class="smallfont"><phrase 1="member.php?$session[sessionurl]find=lastposter&threadid=$thread[threadid]" 2="$thread[lastposter]">$vbphrase[by_x]</phrase></div></td>
<td width="12%"><div class="smallfont">$vbphrase[replies]: $thread[replycount]</div></td>
<td width="12%"><div class="smallfont">$vbphrase[views]: $thread[views]</div></td>
</tr>
</table>
