[Add-on] Display posts anywhere 1.2.0 RC5

[Handyman]

Hi leon,

The reason you aren't able to download is because you have an empty referrer.
Usually caused by being behind a proxy of some sort? we have had a couple people have that problem.
Otherwise it could be an add-on you have installed on your browser.
Also, make sure you are using FireFox as your browser.

I hope that helps sort it out a little? I'm not sure how you would go about solving the issue since I've never had an empty referrer while browsing a site before.

For me it displayed the oldest post and only one from forum ID=2 when i installed it =P

Would be nice if you created a guide later..

And also make a demo where no avatar and sh-it is in the way...
Only the posts like this (3 post is added here):

##################
#(TOPICNAME)
#By (NAME) - (TIME)
#
#(CONTENT)

yeah, I will create an example page later when I release the next version.
And looking at my instructions now, I didn't do very well with them
I'm getting better with instructions

I'm having the hardest time following these instructions. I added the code to the functions.php and now I'm lost, what else am I supposed to do to add this to my index_body.html page?

Hey DKY,

Check out the sample page at the bottom of the instructions file (it's in the Find box).
If you copy that and paste it into a file and do include the html file, that will be all you need to display this on any page.

Sorry the instructions aren't very straightforward? when I get time I'll updated them as well as add a few more features.

Does this mod allow you to only display the first posts of all topics in a forum? This is the kind of mod that I needed to show news on my site. Thanks for making it!

[Handyman]

currently there is no option to only show the first post of a topic.

I created a page based off of the sample page and saved it in my prosilver/templates folder and named it LastPosts.php. Here's what it looks like.

What am I missing here?

well? you'll have a difficult time getting the path to the commen.php correct with your page being inside the templates? I don't recommend leaving it there.

LOL, I love the way you put things. LOL!

I tried putting the page in the root directory and got the following error.

Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_last_posts() in D:\path\to\LastPosts.php on line 24

So I guess that's some progress, huh.

Line 24 is

Code: Select all

get_last_posts(5, 26, 'topic');
