Hey filburt, I know this has been asked, but have you looked into getting more than one news event displayed? Like maybe the 5?

filburt1 · #34 12-31-2002, 04:25 PM

It can be done (change LIMIT 1 to LIMIT 5 and then put parts of the code in a for loop) but I don't have the time.

Nice one Filburt! But is it also possible to display the body/contents of the newspost?

filburt1 · #36 01-10-2003, 02:23 PM

Not without using an additional query.

NickieNonstop · #37 01-10-2003, 02:35 PM

Can you tell me how to setup this query?

Filburt

I have not been using the reply count and userinfo status at the $lastnews

which means that my $lastnews is :

Code:

$lastnews = "Last news event: <a href=\"showthread.php?s=$shash&threadid=$threadid\">$title</a>"

So I guess there are some lines at the following code - to be included at the phpincluded that are not needed in my case, right?
Could you please tell me which of them are not needed so that I could remove them?

(I guess these lines being there is no harm, but If I can remove any code I don't need from the template, I would be glad to do it )

don't post attached file contents --filburt1

thanx in advance

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