Hey man. Sweet hack.

This thing would be perfect if I could place it on my home page. which is already a vB template.. is there anyway I can tweak this PHP code to allow me to use it on all my templates? If not could you point me in the direction of a mod that will allow me to display a forum on my home page as a news feed? Thanks for any help you can give!

Great work mate

Benny

heres my site ... the home page is just a completely separate template.. www.thenorthernwatch.com

Hi.

How do I get "Latest post" to only show last latest post in same thread?

If 5 posts are made in the same thread, then all Latest 5 posts - is from same thread, as it is now!

I would love to have the 5 latest post, from 5 different threads...help :-)
