This is something for the Tips & Tricks Board.

Do you want to be able to do place important links to threads on your main index. Like this;



Well, its easy and this'll work on all SMF versions.

When creating a board as you normally would use HTML code in the board description box (like this below) to add links to the threads you want to add links to from your index.

Board Description<br>
<b><font size="1">Useful Links: <a href="Link 1">Link 1</a> | <a href="Link 2">Link 2</a></b>


Giving you a result of whats similiar to whats highlighted in red in the above MT2 Pic.

Hey,
You could also make it blend in like the subforum by doing
Board Description<br>
<i><font size="1">Useful Links: <a href="Link 1">Link 1</a> | <a href="Link 2">Link 2</a></i>

Just incase someone was interested :)

You could, but then it wouldnt really stand out and wouldnt be as important. ;)

I'd like to do something exactly like this, but have those links point to the most recent posts within the board. Anyone have any idea how that would work?
