Default Recent threads outisde of forum

I've noticed a lot of sites have sections like this on pages outside of their forum:



What's the mod that is needed to do this? I've spent the past 20 minutes trying to find it and I can't

Would appreciate some help - thanks

See the screen-print.

A list of recent threads with the Last Post, Replies, Views, etc?

Maybe they are using portals?

Yeah, I think they are, but I was wondering if it was possible to do something like that without using portals?

Dear James,

Ofcourse it is possible without using any portal system. All you need is a query that will read the threads and order them by dateline. Here is a simple example for you:
PHP Code:
<?php

chdir
(path/to/your/forums);
require_once(
'./global.php');

$threads $db->query_read("
SELECT title FROM " 
TABLE_PREFIX "thread
ORDER by dateline DESC
LIMIT 0,5
"
);
while (
$thread $db->fetch_array($threads))
{
echo 
$thread['title'] . "<br />";
}
?>
The codes above will simply show you the recent 5 threads.

I tried this and it didn't work when I tried to paste the info that WhaLberg provided above. Any idea how I can display it on my page in the place of the bulleted list under the left most section?
