Wow. This one even has an ACP module. :D

By recent topics, do you mean recently created or recently posted in?
Sorry for my bad Engrish !

Hi nickvergessen,

I think it would be useful to display just recent topics which are allowed to be read by the user.

E.g.: User A is a regular member and sees

topic_13
topic_42
topic_55
topic_61
topic_63

User B has admin rights and sees

topic_13
topic_42
topic_29 (topic_29 has been written in a forum which is accessible by admins only)
topic_55
topic_61

I think phpBB's own auth system should be used in MODs like this.

One more question: How many additional queries does your MOD create on the index page?

Have a nice sunday!

If you want to have the unread-information it rises to 1 + 2 * number of topics (example: you want 5topics: 1 + 2 * 5 = 11)
But i can give you a hack which enables the unread-information. Than it's only 1 SQL-Query

Hi nickvergessen,

thanks for your answer and the fine MOD! :)

It would be great if you could post this add-on here because I think many people prefer just one additional query instead of eleven or more.

Many thanks
Wolfgang

maybe it's confusing for the users, if the topics are all set to read or unread, but here's the code:
read wrote:open: root/recent_topics.php
find:

Code: Select all

$topic_tracking_info = get_complete_topic_tracking($forum_id, $topic_id, $global_announce_list = false);
replace, with:

Code: Select all

		$topic_tracking_info = false;//get_complete_topic_tracking($forum_id, $topic_id, $global_announce_list = false);

Has anyone been using this mod on a live forum? Is it buggy or stable?
Do you Ubuntu too?

Is it possible to make it scroll down to the latest unseen post in a thread when I click on a thread link?
