I have fixed the cut off bug, and the repeat of posts is not a bug. It is working as intended.

I use that too - under forum - but that shows only first post in latest thread, I am looking for something like latest thread that shows the last post in thread.

at the same time i upgrade my board i upgraded your product, it appears that now i need to use $platest vs $latest. was this an update in your product that isnt reflected in the admin options or was this something i inadvertintly did? either way.... its working.

That was changed to allow the latest x post and latest x threads to work together. So yes, if you are not having the template auto edited, then add $platest. And I will change it in the next build.

it is possible that the addon also shows the latest posts from hidden user groups?
