Topic: Show Message Icons in Recent Post/Thread Block

[shayneb]

None of these show the correct posts, from what I can tell. Are they made to show recent *topics?* When compared to the built-in Recent Posts block, quite a few posts are missing.
I would like to have a recent *posts* block that shows every single recent post and has the icon of the original topic (as opposed to the icon of the reply).

Is that possible?

It is correct, but the definition isn't that clear about recent topics and posts.

See this:
http://simpleportal.net/index.php?topic=13120.msg65013#msg65013

Sinan's reply might help with getting the result you want.



As for part 2 of your post, that is custom coding and best posted in that section.

I am begging someone to alter these so that they are for recent *posts* rather than recent topics.
I haven't had any responses (yet) to my request in the Custom Coding board, and have literally been spending the past two days trying to re-code it myself to no avail.

If anyone could even tell me what part of the code makes it a "topic" and what part makes it a "post," I could continue trying to do it myself. Something with id_msg and id_topic?
