Hello friends,

Is there any hack or mod to display a forums threads (or headings only) on a html based website....Like latest news from forums (displayed on front page of html website)

Please share...

Regards,

If it's a html website and you can't use php no!
But I think you should have a look @ portal systems or just use a query + echo to find the latest news etc. shouldn't be that way hard!

Can you please recomend some portal system?

vbadvanced is probably the best portal

outher portals u can use

its easy to make Portal System, aint that hard.

if you want latest threads to be displayed, you can just make it by using PHP file (you know that the output will be html eventually but you have to use php for it), and read the latest threads for example:

$threadlist = $DB_site->query("SELECT * FROM thread ORDER BY `threadid` DESC LIMIT 10");
while ($tdlist = fetch_array($threadlist))
{
$title = $tdlist['title'];
$forum = $tdlist['forumid'];
.
.
.
eval('$tdlistbit .= "' . fetch_template('tdlistbit') . '";');
}
eval('$tdlist = "' . fetch_template('tdlist') . '";');

this is example will present you 10 Last Threads who posted in the forum, you can modify it to give you by forum, more threads \ less.. etc'.
just simple coding, and you get the perfect Portal system, that you want and exacly with your needs.

JUST to integrate vBB with your own portal system you have to call global.php (require_once('./forum_folder/global.php');)

Hope i gave ya prespective how it should look
its for vB3.0.x not 3.5.x

enjoy!

Hello,

I run a vbulletin 6.x and wanted to know how I can get news from my forums on an php page. So when I post in a certain catigory it will post that news on a page. any ideas?

1. Why did you bring up a thread thats 2 YEARS OLD?

2. vBadvanced

Cause this is what I was looking for and wanted to know if there was anything for vb 6.x and I don't want to use vbadvanced. Thus the reason why I said PHP page.
