Answering myself:

Write {$topics[$i]['topic_last_poster_name']} instead of {$post['username']}

Thanks for the mod. With this slightly changes it appear to works perfect :D

And one trick more:

I want show phpbb recent posts in an html with a charset=iso-8859-1 . To show appropiate characters, I have to do a conversion:

$titulo=utf8_decode ($topics[$i]['topic_title']);
$autor=utf8_decode ($topics[$i]['topic_last_poster_name']);

Now it's working ok.

Want to start out with a thank you. Awesome mod.

http://www.n2clan.com is the current website i have it working on.
The installation took me a while but i'm no php coder so i dont blame you. I am currently having a bit of trouble with the reply function. When ever i click on the replies link its supposed to send me to a page that allows me to reply to the thread. Im wondering if it has anything to do with permissions? If so shouldnt it direct you to the register page first then to the thread? Im kinda lost as to what im doing wrong. Can anyone offer me some insight?

here is the issue. When i click on Replies on my homepage it takes me to...
http://n2clan.com/forums/posting.php?mode=reply&t=20

When i click on reply directly from the forum's thread it takes me to...
http://n2clan.com/forums/posting.php?mo ... color]t=20
Where does the f=3& come from?

Here is my config file

Code: Select all

<?php
// Mod Title: Topic Extraction [PHPBB3]
// Version: 0.2.3
// There is a readme file, please read it! Please also signup on the forums http://www.altercoder.com !

if (!defined('IN_PHPBB'))
{
	exit;
}

$forum = '3';

$limit = '5';

$title_char = '70';

$post_char = '1000'; 

$show = 'full';

$date_time = 'short';

$topic_link_type = 'phpbb';

$comment = 'topic';

$phpbb_root_path = './forums/';

$phpbb_folder = '/forums/';

$smilies_path   = "{$phpbb_root_path}images/smilies";
?>
and here is my look file

Code: Select all

<<?php
// Mod Title: Topic Extraction [PHPBB3]
// Version: 0.2.3
// There is a readme file, please read it! Please also signup on the forums http://www.altercoder.com !

if (!defined('IN_PHPBB'))
{
	exit;
}

// Display just the title   
//if ($show != 'full' && !($show_topic))
//{
//	echo "<h1><a href='{$topic_link}'>{$topics[$i]['topic_title']}</a></h1><br />";
//}

// Display many topics - for news, shoutbox etc
if ($show == 'full')
{
	echo "<h1><a href='{$topic_link}'>{$topics[$i]['topic_title']}</a></h1>
	
	<p>{$post['post_text']}
	<br />
	<br />
	{$topics[$i]['topic_replies']} Replies :: <a href=\"{$comment_link}\">Reply</a></p>";
}
       
// Display the topic for when used with just display the title
//if ($show_topic)
//{
//	echo "<strong>{$topics[$i]['topic_title']}</strong> by <strong>{$post['username']}</strong> at <strong>{$topics[$i]['topic_time']}</strong><br />
//	<br />
//	{$post['post_text']}

i think you are supposed to change the settings in the topic.config.php file.

Code: Select all

$forum = '#';
change to

Code: Select all

$forum = '#,#';
hope this helps

so you are just trying to take posts from two different threads on ur forum correct?

this is straight out of the readme

Code: Select all

$forum - This is the forum ID where you wish to take Topics from.
This can be a number, a few numbers seperated by commas or the word 'all' to use all forums.
ive never tried it so i wouldnt know but i guess i could try it out now and let u know how it turns out.

On another note. I dont know if this was already covered but i ran into the header problem. It posts my news on the homepage but on top of all of that i would see this...

Code: Select all

[phpBB Debug] PHP Notice: in file /includes/session.php on line 885: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/peppermi/public_html/index.php:7)
[phpBB Debug] PHP Notice: in file /includes/session.php on line 885: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/peppermi/public_html/index.php:7)
[phpBB Debug] PHP Notice: in file /includes/session.php on line 885: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/peppermi/public_html/index.php:7)
When I go straight to my homepage the errors are there. When I visit my forum first then go to my homepage they are gone...
Any ideas?
http://www.peppermillcrew.com is my website so you can see what im talking about.

Sorry to double post, but where deleting:

Code: Select all

  header('Set-Cookie: ' . $name_data . '; expires=' . $expire . '; path=' . $config['cookie_path'] . $domain . ((!$config['cookie_secure']) ? '' : '; secure') . '; HttpOnly', false);
was a solution to the above problem, it caused a major problem in my forum in the way that it would not allow you to remain logged in (when you type in your username/pass you just get return to the index).

Once again, any help is appreciated, many thanks!

I would love an answer to this question.....

Has anyone managed to get this mod working by adding it to the overall_header.html file ?

I have created a second overall_header file which redirects to my index.php file, when i try to use the mod i get a blank page, when i point my broswer to the source file, it works perfect.

is there no other way than using a iframe include ?

Hey, great mod, much better than previous versions, however, I'd like to ask if it's possible to limit by number the actual amount of topics shown?

Here's mine !
