Active Topics 0.1 done

I've got a very rough copy of the vB compatible active topics done.

The file is on

http://www.gandmasti.net/forum/active.txt

The result is on

http://www.gandmasti.net/index2.shtml
or
http://www.gandmasti.net/forum/active.php

Mind you my board is a humor board and there might be offensive jokes on the active list, consider yourself warned!

This copy has several things I want to add, in the following priorities....

a) Template support
b) User defined number of topics / topics since last logon
c) RDF support (to allow others to take the list from your site dynamically)
d) WML support (to allow mobile phone users to get their humor fix via phones... also to allow me to admin / delete the forums via a mobile phone)
e) Clean up of the code / comments
f) Offline (low overhead) generation via cron

Craig,

Just curious.. what software did you use to create your top nav bar? I am clueless about graphics.... but it looks *cool*

I am not sure what program he used to achieve this, but it would be a fairly easy task in Photoshop. I agree that it is very well done as well.

Can't take any credit for this i'm afraid - a chum did it for me. I believe he used Photoshop though...

Just wondering if I can get this topic back on track

I thought it would be better if we could make and exclude rather than a select to ignore certain forums. I have tons of them and rather than writing all of them and keeping track of them I would prefer simply adding the handful I would like ignored. Thats how the activethreads I have for UBB works.

Can somebody post a link to where I can get the latest version of this?

The links in the previous messages are invalid

I downloaded wanderer's script (shri's gives me 404) and I am a bit clueless how to proceed. Can someone please explain to me how I set this up, what I need to edit, and how exactly do I generate a file that has x number of posts from one specific forum?

Also, can I rename the files to have a .php extention, rather than a php3?

Thanks

Hello,

Can someone please post a link that works for Wanderers active topics hack.

Thanks.

Here it is (found on the page before):

I have a little Problem with this hack.
The update-time is not shown on my active-page.

Ans how can I insert my header an footer?

Weird...I got a 404 error when I tried to access that before.

thanks

I am running this but would like to do so with a cron making a text file of this so it can be included into main page, and the cron updating that file hourly.

How would I go about this?

Thanks in advance...
