SSI boardNews Default theme help

[Dumke]

I've been attempting different things, basically all evening,
But i can't seem to get what i need, all samples close to what i'd like has been for core and not the default theme, which sorta has help but also confused me just as much

All i'm attempting to do is just display the url and name and post date.
I can't get my head around this, so any help would be appreciated.

You need to call the function with the "array" output parameter, which will just return an array of data instead of "echo'ing" it directly.
Then you just need to loop through the array and output the data you want

With that post, and this api doc, http://support.simplemachines.org/function_db/?action=view_function;id=535

I was able to figure it out, thanks!

Notice: Undefined index: minWordLen in D:\xampp\htdocs\forums\Sources\Load.php(2736) : eval()'d code on line 137


I'm not sure why this is happening..

don't use the .0

as for the error... it appears that you may have a mod which has a string or value that is not defined

I turned off evaluate template, and it showed the error to be,
from Minimum Characters/Words Per Post.

$txt['error_minWordLen'] = 'The message does not meet the minimum word requirements (' . //$modSettings['minWordLen'] . ' words).';

Since, I chose the MinChar option instead, this throws an error. ha.

thanks for the tip.

That's related to a mod (minimum words per post, I think...)
