For your own forum only? You could tweak RecentPosts() in Recent.php

For a theme, you could tweak SSI.php

Thanks ,
yes it's for my Forum .. i'll try the SSI.php

[Crip]

No dice , there must be another way ?

p/s
I checked my 1.1 version and it displays => Pages: [10] as\well ..?

I did it  using SSI recently, saving it in array then output as required.

Cool , please , tell me more?

Do following but don't forget to include SSI first...

Koodi [Valitse] Laajenna

$latest = ssi_recentTopics($num_recent = 10, $exclude_boards = 47.0, $include_boards = null, $output_method='array');

Now $latest will contain all your latest topic, you can see that array using print_r($latest) and format them as you need ! Here, have excluded board 47.0 , you can omit this part to include all board.

thanks Ricky. -- and this SSI code goes where?  ... via the =>  //Recent.template.php  ?

[Ricky.]

Depends where you need, since most of the time we modify index.template.php only, I had used this in index.template.php only!

[Crip]

Okay , thanks again

[Crip]

I really can't find a place to add your code or I'm doing it wrong ? ,, no errors though..

wrong??

Koodi [Valitse] Laajenna

<?php include("$latest = ssi_recentTopics($num_recent = 10, $exclude_boards = 47.0, $include_boards = null, $output_method='array');"); ?>

[Ricky.]

It will not output anything, you should do like this :

Koodi [Valitse] Laajenna

include 'Path/to/your/SSI.php';
$latest = ssi_recentTopics($num_recent = 10, $exclude_boards = 47.0, $include_boards = null, $output_method='array');
Above will not show anything,  rather everything will be in $latest. Now either using loop or directly, you output them as required.
