I've removed some of my comments, and edited post no #26
with the added "Forum" if somebody else want's it.

I was wondering ?
This hack displays only the latest "New" posts. What about if I would like it to show reply's as well ? (like the Top 'X' Stats by InfiniteWebby)
Once the new posts have trickled down to no 5, they will never show up again when replied to....
I guess this is because your php code is only pulling data from the thread table.
Would it be possible for you to change it so reply's shows up as "New post"
as well ?
PS.
Another great addition (but not extremely important) would be the "Last Post" column.
(same as when you do a search), with it's little blue arrow that goes to the last post and offcourse post icons...

I hope i'm not pushing it, just wanna improve this already great hack ;)

Deaths is atm working on a better version of this hack So I don't know when he'll post the new version, but it'll be certainly better!

Heh, its almost done. I've just gotta fix a bug or 2, but atm I'm working on a little project for this site so it might take another day or 2.

Wow !, I can't wait to see that improved version. :classic:
I don't know much about coding these things, but went "head and heels"
into adding that forum column yesterday.
It took a while, but was funny and challenging.
I combined my bits and pieces of knowledge, and thru trial and error
finally got that to work.(with help from Niels)
It's funny this stuff.
Right now I'm plowing my head deep into a "Mysql for dummies" book !
I hope I don't lay it aside as i've done several times in the past.
While going thru the code of some of the hacks made by other people here,
i'm astonished by the degree of knowledge these people possess.

[Arnoud]

Good luck with the book ;)

Thanks
When the new hack is released, who will be the author ?
I mean is "Deaths" and "Arnoud" the same person, couldn't find a member with the name "Deaths" ?

Oh, sorry my mistake. Deaths = Arnoud. But the staff changed nicks a week ago So Arnoud (Deaths) is the new author, but there will be still some credits in for me

[dobberman]

Ok, thanks for the clarification
"Arnoud" sounds nicer to :p

[Arnoud]

Hehe, check out the link in my sig. The big red one

[Arnoud]
