have you checked at http://mods.invisionize.com/ for anything? They are a common source of Mods for IPB.
Might cost you some money, though... |

yes, i have checked invisionize and all the other usual mod sites, and have come up with nothing. i have, unlike many other trapn00bs, actually googled the subject before posting, and nothing has been found.
i believe this is a mod found only on trap17/astahost, and i would be perfectly happy to leave copyright trap17 etc. in my code... i just really need this mod... thanks |

Check this one out: http://mods.invisionize.com/db/index.php/f/916
It is an older mod, so you might need to check some stuff to see if it works on your version... |

1. that mod is for a VERY much older version of ipb, i have checked the code and it is destined to not work.
2. that mod only shows the very last topic posted, i'd like it to show the last 20. thanks for the help, anyway. i have pm'ed opaque and buff, hope one of them will help. |

Well if you look at this mod here http://mods.invisionize.com/db/index.php/f/7285, you could with a testing could make this mod display on your forums, I have a feeling that is how it is done with the forum, but I think OpaQue designed his own mod for that. Maybe he can tell you what he did to set it up.

well sm, i have previously examined that mod, however it seems to show only latest posts, shows them in a list not a tabular format and i do not know how to customise it to my needs due to my lack of php knowledge. i hope opaque or buff will be able to help.

I presume the mod is custom to Trap17/Astahost, seeing as it appears to be called the "Lastest Activity" mod rather than "Latest Activity"
 I haven't coded with the latest versions of IPB, but there should be some way to run SQL queries for modifications fairly easily. You should be able to write an SQL query to order the topics by last activity, and pull out 10 rows to get the last 10 topics.I have also seen a few forums that have a box labelled "Top 5 Statistics" which has a section listing the 5 latest topics. Adjusting that to the latest 10 would be a trivial change. However, there are a few mods with the same, or very similar, names, and I don't know which one it is http://mods.invisionize.com/db/index.php/f/8005 http://mods.invisionize.com/db/index.php/f/7270 http://mods.invisionize.com/db/index.php/f/7748 http://mods.invisionize.com/db/index.php/f/7794 |
