Latest X Threads on Forumhome: Advanced! v1.1.1
http://www.vbhackers.com

This an advanced version of Niels' hack. All credit for the idea and template code goes to him! All I've done is make it admincp configurable, phrased (1 phrase :p) and show the forums of the threads without an additional query per thread displayed.

Having said that, here's a howto on installing:

1. Unzip the .zip.
2. Import the Product in your Admincp.
3. Go into Style Manager, Edit Templates and edit the template FORUMHOME.
4. Add "$latest_x_threads" (without quotes) somewhere in the template. I decided to add it bellow "$navbar", but its your choice ;).
5. Save the template. You're done!

Important: v1.1.1 released.
To upgrade, please download the latest .zip (1.1.1), and run it in your admincp.

Changelog:
v1.1.1: Permission check typo fixed.
v1.1.0: Permission checks added.
v1.0.0: Initial release.


That's it, enjoy!

I'm using this hack from post 22 posted by dobberman.

There is one problem.. on forum home i had last poster column and when some one reply it appear as well but when i click on last poster it takes me to first post of thread and not to last post.

But i was using same hack for 3.5.4 and then 3.5.5 and it was working fine but since i upgrade to 3.6.1 last poster is not working..

Any idea how to fix?

There were changes made to the gotonewpost function from 3.5 to 3.6.

In
latest_x_threads_bits goto the bottom of the page and you should see similar code as to what I have posted. Replace it.

You must first be a registered member to view any code.

Well i changed the code u mention but everything messed up on main page... columns were looking wired....

Anyway this is what i did and now its working perfect for 3.6.1

In latest_x_threads_bits
Find:

goto=lastpost&amp;t=$thread[threadid]"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar

Replace:

p=$thread[lastpostid]$thread[highlight]#post$thread[lastpostid]"><span style="white-space:nowrap"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar
