| 481336 | 2006-08-30 04:43:00 | Hi all What i want is similar to what Pressf1 has, on the main page pcworld.co.nz The 5 most recent posts are displayed, and if you click on the title of the post you are taken to the post in the forum I have a site that uses phpBB (pressf1 uses VBulletin), and i would like to know if there is something similar available, it probably wouldn't be to difficult to write, but i am lazy and i would assume something this obvious would already exist Cheers |

| 481338 | 2006-08-30 06:07:00 | I did have a look at the mods thing, I should have been clearer, the site has a phpBB Board on it, but the main site page where i want the latest 5 posts to appear is not part of phpBB, it is a concoction of mine Cheers |

| 481342 | 2006-08-31 02:22:00 | I can't provide an answer (too busy to investigate it), but for you to make yourself clearer, what you require is two scripts: one to gather the most recent posts, which will be a phpbb mod or hack, and another on your site's server to call on that script and plonk it on the webpage of your choosing | Greg (193) | ||
